Holy... That's terrific... Ever considered architecture?

Thanks :blush: I did consider it, but I've realised I actually don't like drawing buildings...they're too geometric for me so I take aaaages (this one took 5 hours) and it annoys me while I'm doing it :P

My guess is that the building on the right took at least 4 of those hours ;) And I see what you mean by architecture...

Still, it would be a great career!

It takes seven years to qualify as an architect so I think that puts a lot of people off the idea. You also need to do maths and ideally physics at "A" level, it's one of the few careers that combine art and science. You do seem to have a talent for drawing buildings but if you don't enjoy doing it architecture probably isn't a good career choice for you. I find it strange when people don't enjoy doing what they are obviously talented at, it's like my Mum she is excellent at needlework but she hates doing it although she is talented at other things which she enjoys.

I know, and I'd pretty much already decided I didn't want to do it after interrogating a friend studying architecture at the moment...a talent for drawing buildings? I thought this was my first time o.0...I was mistaken?

I could lose myself whilst drawing this sort of thing...mostly in thought...and mostly because I would draw from my imagination rather than from a photo but I could probably never do architecture. (don't like the math so much.)


P.S.
How large is this drawing?

I dislike drawing architecture because it doesn't enable me to really free up, but I had to for the art project. It's about...just less than A5?
