\"1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Just before the exam I took a trip to the beach with a couple of friends for an afternoon of revision, tea, oysters and eventually dinner. Whitstable turned out to be a great venue for reading, although if you are planning on doing this yourself, do remember to bring paperweights with you.<\/p>\n

The beach can get pretty windy and wet notes aren\u2019t quite as informative as dry ones.<\/p>\n

\"2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

After the stress of the Nineteenth Century Architecture exam and the final structural report hand in passed, I found myself with plenty of free time to start enjoying life again. So I picked up my sketchbook and my favourite watercolour set and have been busy. Well, not that busy.<\/p>\n

Yesterday whilst waiting for the clock to strike seven, I got bored and decided to go for a stroll around the city centre. I have to admit it wasn\u2019t the best day for a walk, hence I only ended up with this fairly quick sketch. The line work is particularly rushed as by the time I decided to put pen to paper, I was already late for dinner.<\/p>\n

This is one of my favourite spot in Canterbury, the cobbled narrow street and shop signs frame Bell Harry perfectly.<\/p>\n

I have been drawing the cathedral a lot recently. Just a few days ago, fellow aspiring architect, Prinka Anandawardhani and I took an impromptu visit to the cloisters and spent half an hour sketching. Hers is a little better than mine so I chose to omit a scan of it to avoid competition.<\/p>\n

The restoration process for the cathedral is forever on going, the result of the successful \u201cSave Canterbury Cathedral\u201d Appeal launched in 2006. Though it is a shame that in order to save it, parts of the building and its surrounding complex has to be covered up. It was slightly frustrating that when my friends came for a day visit, Christ Church Gate was concealed behind scaffoldings and tatty white fabric. Well guys, if you\u2019re reading this, here it is. Through my eyes. For more accurate representations go to google images.<\/p>\n

Finally, to end this ramble. My favourite sketch at the moment, this one of St Paul\u2019s Cathedral from the 1 New Change rooftop, right by St Paul\u2019s station. I would seriously recommend going there for a great view of London and a day out sketching.<\/p>\n
