Richmond to Kensal Rise

Finchley & Frognal to New Cross Gate

Off at Dalston, pick up a coffee outside the station, short walk to Dalston Junction for the (uncrowded) East London line.

Kensal Rise to Crouch Hill

At West Hampstead the woman who sat down beside me had a bag with a swirly pattern; she got off two stations later, at Hampstead Heath.

Highbury to New Cross

Crouch Hill to Kensal Rise

The booklet is my contribution to the Sketchbook Project, based in Brooklyn, USA. The theme is "this is not a sketchbook" (it's a time machine!).

Crouch Hill to Kensal Rise

Kensal Rise to Crouch Hill

Recycled poster paper (printed on back).

Tracing paper.

Thin (old) typing paper.

Faber-Castell PITT artist pen, medium. Between trains, waiting in the sunshine.

Overground - new train

Three continuous carriages on the Richmond-Stratford line, with a conductor who signals "ready to depart" with the morse code for the number seven: two long, three short. Or is it - two short and then three short (ie, I and S)? You hear it so often you can't remember because you're actually ignoring it.

Queens Park to Euston

Three stages, between stations - Queen's Park to Kilburn Road; Kilburn Road to South Hampstead; South Hampstead to Euston.

Tracing paper with graphite rubbings of stitched marks in fabric. The graphite is inside the folds, preventing smearing.

Crouch Hill to Kensal Rise

"Lyra" silver pencil on "Raven" paper.

Somewhere...

The importance of keeping notes and records! Found weeks after the event (early February). Train travel, at a guess...

South Hampstead to Euston

Travelling by overground; making a net...
