Description
A pen drawing I did a long time ago in about the early 1990s when I was living in an old bedsit in a terrace house in Sydney NSW Australia.. The circumstances of this place and how I came to live in it is a long and complicated story, but at the time I was hugely grateful for this limited space, as it seemed more like a refuge than anything else and for the first time in a long time I experienced the real meaning of freedom for myself, having just escaped a long and very unhappy marriage.
One day when I was in the small kitchenette I looked out on this view and thought to myself how inspiring it was as a scene with all its old buildings, an old historic church in the distance and the trees growing in my neighbour's back yards. Since there was not enough room for a table or chair in this space, I perched myself up on a low kitchen cupboard, so that I could see this view, whilst sketching it on a sketch pad on my knee.I was so happy with the result of my artwork that I've kept it filed away for years, only now to exhibit it on FAA! :-)
