You may remember the Teaching Learning Complex (TLC) that was officially opened over a year ago now, and I had drawn all the construction of it for a couple of years during the pandemic, and the construction company even gave me a nice warm sweater with an embroidery of one of my sketches of the site in the sleeve. It’s now getting to the time of year when it’s cool enough for me to wear it again, by the way, it’s very comfortable. I always need a construction project to draw, don’t I. Right now it’s that new wing of the Chemistry building, it’s nearly finished. Then I don’t draw it again for ages. However the TLC is pretty sketchable, and so on one of my lunchtimes I had to draw it again, while stood in the shade of another new build right opposite (the new part of the Engineering building, which wasn’t as visually interesting to document unfortunately; I’ll draw the recently finished thing soon). I was going to do a full colour sketch with the nice blue sky contrasting the building and all the different foliage, but I stopped where I was because lunchtime was over and I just liked that tree standing out. I drew in a plane that was flying far overhead, and then spent the rest of the sketch (as well as every time I look at the page) trying to swat it away thinking it is a fly. Instinct, innit. This was ‘Now And Then’ day, and by this point I had not listened to it, I was saving it until the end of the work day. I could do a ‘Now And Then’ for this building by showing what it looked like when it was just a construction site, but just look at the tag /teaching-learning-complex/” and you’ll see all the old sketches, with some waffling text.
