A bit wonky, but I wanted to be freer with my sketching (might be a bit too free).

Also taken when I was in the UK in 2015. Mount Stuart, Isle of Bute. I loved the variety in chimneys, roofing and turrets.

Taken here in Geelong. This building always reminds me of a French provincial architecture.

Unlike the first sketch (which was in an A4 pad), the last two are in an A5 sketchbook. The result is somewhat squashed.

Have been enjoying doing these. Previous work I've done has been too rigid as I tried to be too precise. Your work has inspired me to try to use more relaxed and free linework. Hopefully with regular sketching I might be able to improve.
I'm not sure whether to continue using the A5 sketchbook as I seem to find it difficult to compose the drawings in a pleasing way to fit the page. Maybe I should keep that just for smaller details rather than whole buildings.
