I’ve seen plenty of industrial extractor pipework but never as many or as big as these and it’s in a library!

Passing locals avoided eye contact as I sat and sketched this view. The owner of the property I was sat on said this house is probably from the 1930s or 40s and it will be demolished.
This didn’t work out as I’d hoped. Everything here is under ten years old. The fancy balustrade is surrounding huge air codintioning units, but they’re not obvious in my sketch.
I was wandering around this building for a while trying to find the best angle. I found this spot and started sketching. Ten minutes later a woman came up to me and spoke to me in Macedonian. After a while I realised I shouldn’t be sat there as it was private. I had to finish the sketch from a photo, which I never do, but I had to capture it in it’s brutalist glory.
This series of images began when I was captivated by some of the "Illustrative" techniques used by Richard Gregory. Richard kindly gave me some tips and here are some experimental images based one Bruges Canal shot which I posted yesterday. Thanks, Richard. None of them look like yours but I did get one quite close for a while. Then I became interested in getting an engraving type effect, mono and tinted. These are the three results. Thanks again, Richard.
Inspired by a photo plaque of kitten hanging onto a branch.
Hang In There Kitty Copyright 1994, Pencil and Ink.
Digitized in 2014 according to the date modified. However I have lost computers since then and may have scanned it in a long time before that. Prints of this drawing are available to raise funds for our foster cat household. please message me. -Kat
"Hang in There Kitty" was one of the few drawings I made in 1994, inspired by a photo plaque of a kitten holding onto a branch that said, "Lord help me hang in there." Photographer unknown. Plaque is now rare and hard to find on the internet. Reminds me of Psalm 36:6&7. "Oh Lord you preserve (save) both people and animals. How precious is your unfailing Love." - Amplified Paraphrase.

P. S. Original drawing was on tracing paper. I have different techniques when using tracing paper. I scanned the original tracing paper with a scanner/printer and created a print on white paper. I'm sure the original was scanned at Kinko's (bought by FedEx) since I didn't have a printer in 1994. Later I scanned that copy into the computer, cleaned up the smudges to create a clear image on white background.

There's an interesting building on the Ottawa River which has existed there ever since 1914. It was built by the Ottawa New Edinburgh Club (ONEC) and served for many years as a centre for canoeing, rowing and sailing. Last year major renovations were completed by the National Capital Commission and the building opened up anew with a café, outdoor patios, a ballroom for rent, an outside swimming pool, and offices for the Ottawa River Keeper. It's a lovely spot for anyone interested in activities on or by the river. I visited it last autumn and enjoyed a tour of the building and a light lunch on the patio overlooking the water. It brought back memories of when I learnt to sail at its marina (RA Sail) and later when I docked my boat there. It's great to see a heritage structure like this being repurposed into a something that everyone can enjoy.
Il y a un bâtiment intéressant sur la rivière des Outaouais qui existe depuis 1914. Il a été construit par l'Ottawa New Edinburgh Club (ONEC) et a servi pendant de nombreuses années de centre de canotage, d'aviron et de voile. L'année dernière, des rénovations majeures ont été complétées par la Commission de la capitale nationale et le bâtiment a rouvert ses portes avec un café, des terrasses extérieures, une salle de bal à louer, une piscine extérieure et des bureaux pour le Gardien de la rivière des Outaouais. C'est un endroit charmant pour tous ceux qui s'intéressent aux activités sur ou au bord de la rivière. Je l'ai visité l'automne dernier et j'ai profité d'une visite du bâtiment et d'un déjeuner léger sur la terrasse surplombant l'eau. Cela m'a rappelé l'époque où j'avais appris à faire le voile à sa marina (RA Sail) et plus tard lorsque j'y ai amarré mon bateau. C'est formidable de voir une structure patrimoniale comme celle-ci transformée en quelque chose dont tout le monde peut profiter.
Honey Crisp apple, crispy Autumn leaf, potato chip (or "crisp" if you're on the other side of The Pond). Take your pick - I couldn't!
As I was sketching, the ferry workers were shouting their heads off directing the trucks and coaches as they reversed all the way onto and to the back of the ferry. They had to park really tightly. I presume they were shouting “left”, “right” and “stop” in Italian. It was so funny. It reminded me of the international It’s A Knockout.
