Wandering

Today I went wandering in London and I chanced upon a church in the middle of a busy road. I went in and opened the door to the force of a choir, one of those real choirs with basses and tenors and altos. The dome was gold.

Thinking

Third year is going at a marvellous pace. This term, amongst personal work, we have been doing some really exciting live briefs of which more will come later. Now we are thinking about out final projects, how do we want to take our bow from four years of art education? It is all so very exciting! Here is a sketchbook page.
