This is a watercolour painting expressing the concept for the design of a youth theatre I'd done for my architecture degree. The pictures show it on display at the exhibition for my degree show in 2012.

Skiddaw Painting
Skiddaw (2011), Oil on Canvas.
This painting was inspired by Skiddaw, a mountain in the English Lake District. I was trying to achieve a swirling cloud to obscure the view. I wanted a similar atmosphere to the reality of the fell, which seems to be constantly in the clouds.

Sketch of Church Interior
At architecture school we often went on trips to see examples of local architecture and were encouraged to diagram, sketch and make notes on what we saw. Most of the places we visited are featured in the Pevsner guide for North Lancashire (books about the vernacular architecture of Britain).
This is one of the first and last sketches I made on the trips. After this we were encouraged to think more about how the building works and produce diagrams to that effect. Still, for a five minute job I was quite pleased with this one!
