On a trip to Cape Town, South Africa, I recorded my experiences through a variety of reportage and more developed drawings primarily using ink and dip pen. Some of my favourites include a drawing of Cape Town City Hall and an aquatint etching developed from drawings from the top of Table Top Mountain.
