Trinity College Dublin

One of the last nice days of summer, early September in Dublin. Trinity College is always special. And I'm getting to like my Seawhite of Brighton cartridge paper sketchbook. It does things with watercolour that watercolour paper can't do. 

When you sketch an intimidating building often enough, like the Graduate Memorial Building here, it's not intimidating anymore, particularly when you skip a good bit of it, and when you give the big tree in front of it frontstage. I love it that there is a hint of autumn in the foliage, but it was still warm enough to sit outside without feeling cold.

The other sketch is from Botany Bay, my go-to place when I want to escape the hordes of tourists!
