The Pagoda in Victoria Park

This is the new Pagoda in Victoria Park (see also A new Chinese Pagoda for Victoria Park and Victoria Park: The Chinese Pagoda and the new Island)

This is also the final sketch I did for A Postcard from my Walk - except it started as a sketch and ended up more like a 'proper drawing'.  It's now with my friend Robyn in Tuscany who wrote What a Finale!

    I saw this first on Robyn's blog and was in awe of your amazing ability to capture a scene with cp's. How long does a piece like this take you?

    Well it generally varies as to size - but not long!

    The coloured pencil is layered on top of pen and ink hatching which helps with the tonalities.
