June, 2024, pencil on A5 paper
I took the overnight train to Cornwall from Paddington in the summer, one of my favourite journeys. I love waking up to see the sun rising over the rolling hills and the promise of the Cornish coastline ahead. I went to the bar on the train for a night cap and the train stopped at Reading for a few minutes, enough time for me to draw the deserted platform through the window.

A Road Trip from the East Midlands to the North West of England stopping at retail parks, services and town centres including Leicester Fosse Park, Loughborough, Warrington Ikea, Whitebirk near Blackburn and the M6 motorway.
Lamu, Kenya, 1990
I came across this A4 sketchbook lately, they’re charcoal sketches that I made on the island of Lamu when I spent a few months there in 1990.
Some people that I met worked in a carpenter’s workshop in Lamu Town and I stopped by one afternoon. I didn’t do a of lot drawing on that trip, my main project was Stop Frame Animation. So this sketchbook could be the only observational drawing that I did at that time
