“Having spent 3 hours drawing on the platform (not actually on the platform) at Clapham Common Tube station I had the information and feel of this print down in my sketchbook. I’ve always liked the double sided platform and the old wooden benches that divide the standing area. Every time a train arrived or left I would be asked similar questions by intrigued commuters and even the platform cleaner came up to take a closer look at what I was doing.
The circular composition of the print echoes the tunnel in which you wait and disappear into as a commuter.
The umbrella was left behind by some unlucky Londoner.”
