Went drawing with a friend (actually, I draw and she takes photos) day before yesterday, and we both wanted to take a closer look at this church, Botkyrka kyrka, on the edge of the Southern suburbs of Stockholm. The largest part of this old building is from the 12th century, which is kind of overwhelming when you start to think of it. Just imagine all the people who visited this place through almost ninehundred years…

    It's lovely – I especially like the way you rendered the stone walls. It really amazing to think of all the people who entered that building. nancy

    Love the contrast of light on the walls and the querky feel to the architecture of your church. Scanned down posts I had missed and found the delightful flower sketch from your student's bouquet.
