memory or post card? and we are not a dark country...we`ve got sun at least 3 months in a year (and Toronto a few more days give and take
)...let`s not ask for too much, ok? So if he`s really been there then that`s very impressive...do you know how many buildings that city has? casandra on Jul 20 2009, 11:40 PM said:

"To commemorate the reopening of the St Pancras Station, The Daily Telegraph commissioned Stephen to produce an exclusive drawing. He took just two hours to capture every detail its refurbished interior."
And three month sun is a lot

perhaps he was there at one of the other 9 months? this one`s better..with a lot more light and just two hours to draw it from memory....nice...but for that amount of time, I think I can do the clock...

...they're detailed, perfectly scaled and life-like so whether he could attach to the shapes the concept of buildings, I guess only he knows...
