There is something very attractive about this and that arch was worth the trouble

Super study Martin……again, I do like the stain on the paper, it’s like parchment and ideal for architectural subjects.

Very well done, Martin.

I’m loving that archway and the detail, not to mention the depth - a rather splendid drawing Martin!

I love churches and cathedrals, and all to do with them. Once an altar-boy..etc. Nice work,,(-:

Many thanks for your comments Spencer Heather Coral Fiona Mia Alan and Jim. Always good to receive them

Great drawing Martin, I like the detailing.

Like this a lot!

Subtle with accents in all the right places. Lovely work, Martin.

The curves on the arched doorway were a right struggle and the rain came back and splashed the work. Hey ho. Cheers! Pencil and watercolour washes on Clairefontaine pad A5
