Berlin, Berliner Dom, Staatsbibliothek & Potsdamer Platz

Beliner Dom, I did this drawing in three trips, each time working until my fingers lost feeling because of the cold.


Another brief lunch time concert at the Philharmonie followed by a surprisingly warm stint of drawing the Staatsbibliotek and some more buildings around Potsdamer Platz

Berlin, Hauptbanhof

After a visit to the Hamburger Banhof, a drawing of the Hauptbanhof on another chilly afternoon in Berlin.

More drawing in Berlin

I was asked to draw the Sony Centre as a gift for the architect Helmut Jahn, thankfully it warmed up enough to sit outside all day and not get numb hands once!



A quick drawing of the view over the Spree, too cold to sit in one place for too long that day!

Berlin

I am in Berlin for a while, getting lots of architectural inspiration and trying to stay warm. It's a world away from being in India but an interesting contrast. I went to a lunch time concert at the Berlin Philharmoniker today and heard some beautiful music from Misa Criolla. Afterwards I took the opportunity, while it wasn't totally freezing, to do some drawing outside, until my hands lost all feeling. Then retreated inside for a coffee and more drawing. There's even some people in the second image!
