Fine work on that haywain one, Mr Ploos. Love it. Bravo again.

I like the larger sketches particularly. They all have a good quality, but the larger ones allow you to get into a freer gesture, one that is giving your drawings some nice flair.

And this new one is very promising as well. I can see how you're plotting out the composition, putting in the important marks first as a sort of artistic blueprint.

I have high hopes for this one as well. As you approach this further, remember that a good thing is to keep your values describing depth and it gives a good separation to the planes. Look carefully in your reference painting for how they used values to establish a good sense of space.

Where is this cathedral? Fabulous spire. Lots of upward movement in this picture. As impressive as the monument is, it's framed by the grandeur of nature. I can hear the art dealer back then using that as a selling point. Not a common modern theme since we've all been dwarfed by technology.

GO MAN GO!!!!! Great start.
