The only way to combat my fear was to combat my disdain. Ideally, the outcome would be leading a life of art and creativity.

On this particular day of sketching, a worker walked by me and called out to ask if I was sketching. I said yes and he asked if he could see my work. I showed him my book and he excitedly told me that my style was very similar to his own dad's art.

One of my favourite pit stops in the city is right here on Southbank between Flinders Street and Queens Bridge. It's great because I can people-watch, I can see our city skyline and it's right near the Lindt store.

Who even knew that St Kilda Road would have its own postcode? When I was younger, I loved travelling along St Kilda Road and seeing all the big trees lining each side of the street. It was how I knew we were almost in the city.

For Postcode 3003, I knew I wanted this train station because I am yet to visit a station with such a magnificent view.

I love Gothic buildings. It was my favourite style to learn while I studied architecture. I love the details as seen in this beautiful church building.

By the time I'd started sketching, the place had almost emptied of all its lunch crowd. This was fine with me because I was far too self-conscious to draw in public.
