Anyone interested in looking at my Portfolio?

Your style is certainly what jives with my mental impression of 'architect', though I think you could afford to loosen up with your drawings. Those of people especially. Now they look a bit like frozen masks. But technical skill is definitely there - you deserve to be accepted!

Very nice work.

One thing I would say is that most of your comments describe the work rather than the idea and the reasoning behind how you approach the work. Things like "as you can see I like to be precise with my pencil" but why do you like to be precise with a pencil? Is that why you use a pencil for that type of work because it's precise? Why not ink? What qualities does using a pencil bring to the work, not only to the physical work but also in you? etc.

Basically I think you need to be a bit more self-critical.

Thanks, I didnt see that at all Those are very valuable advice that I'll take on board. The reason why I didn't write a lot was because they wasnt really required by the uni, I just put them there to tell them what those are about so they tended to be very descriptive like you say, rather than actually telling them why I do those. I sort off wanted to keep them short and snappy but failed in the end. Will try harder next time.

The majority of stuff you describe is evident from the work itself it's the deeper stuff that's harder to pull out but that's one of the things they are most interested in. Architecture is very subjective and is almost demonstrating process, how you got to that final drawing is as important as the drawing itself. That's what you want to get across.

Does that make sense?

I'm positive you'll be fine as what lots of schools want to see is raw talent but starting to think about things in a more meaningful and critical way will give you a huge head start next year.

Your pencil drawings are extremely beautiful. I have a question for you now, especially concerning the drawings with reflections in the sphere; how did you draw these, i.e, did you begin with observation, photograph it and continue, or did you consistently draw with observation and finished with your own memory of the details. I'm not quizzing you but want to know your process for when I'm honing my own drawing skills. Well done, definitely the best drawings I've come across.
