C: AN ORIGINAL PHOTOGRAPH OF NATURE

This photography was captured when I was traveling with my best friends last year.
When I raised my head on our hike, I found this appealing scenery, which represented a wonderful balance between the bright parts and the dark ones. The shapes of the trees, the green leaves, the brown reviving branches, and even the clear blue sky, nearly everything in my range of vision got along with each other in such a harmonious way, and left my companies and me amazed and fascinated beyond description, for the nature seemed to project its vital and virile profile in front of us...

B: A IMAGE OF PANTHEON

From my view, Pantheon is without parallel of the greatest artistic valve and architectural design level. I haven't acquired the knowledge of architectural history and theory systematically, nonetheless, my attention was wholly arrested by Pantheon as soon as I saw the pictures of its. The elements of this architecture as oculus, coffered ceiling, stepped dome, drum, rotunda, etc., all seizes my instinctive feel of favor and curiosity rather than any other great buildings.
It has been said that Pantheon is the first Rome architecture that puts more focus on the interior decoration than exterior style. Meanwhile, the interior structural design is quite successful. Due to consecutive load-bearing walls inside, the inner space looks a little simple, but it is rather complete, and within the means of repetition and other methods the inner space create incredible geometric symmetry and harmony.
In his article Imperium in the Pantheon of Rome and its Pavimentum Patrick Hunt says, "Few great buildings in the world have a history parallel to the Pantheon; none are so glorious to better represent the genius of Roman architecture...the Pantheon still exemplifies the Roman aim for perfection in structural integrity and philosophical harmony." I really want to be one of those whom can be offered an opportunity to delve into the beauty of this building.

A: DESIGN WORK

As can be seen from the photograph, on the right portion of paper there is a distinctive architecture with an arcuate roof that looks like a colossal leaf covering a three-storey-high building. This is not my own creative achievement, i imitated it from a relevant periodical, however, it is the first time I colored a picture with Marker pens mostly according to my imagination.
Moreover, the left part of the paper represents two swimming pools, which are totally designed on my own, including the color patterns. I don't think I utilized the Marker conventionally，but fortunately the efficacy may be not too bad.
