ローマの図面バチカン市国
I saw the varied Roman posts and thought I’d put up a few drawings as well. I spent a week in Vatican City drawing several years ago and can definitely say that I had a religious art experience! It was terrific. I stayed with the nuns and attended a Papal audience which I drew as well: I wanted the full Vatican City effect, and I certainly got it! Even the crowd in St. Peters Square on Sunday morning could not dwarf the hugeness of the space: it is awe-inspiring. And the crowd itself – multi-cultural, multi-national, multi- multi! I had a wonderful time. The drawing at the bottom was done […]
Another St Peter’s
This is the only sketch I have of St Peters. I was rather excited when I saw the long queue and got my sketchbook out instantly.

san pietro one more time…
funny, I was nearly at the same place when I sketch san pietro during the sunday morning pope’s office last october… Inspired by Tia and Florian’s post =;)
マイ・ピアッツァ・サン・ピエトロ

旅のスケッチブックから見たサンピエトロ
Vatican City, originally uploaded by tiastudio. I wish I can go back to Europe and fill up another sketchbook but the distance from Singapore to Rome is 6226 miles or 10020 kilometers and a typical flight between Singapore and Rome is easily 15 to 18 hours. So, I am happy I’d done a sketch on St. Peter, Vatican City in one of my travel sketchbooks.
