1,000 drawings
These are a random sample of the drawings that have accumulated in my plans chest over the years and now number, at a rough guess, over a thousand. I look through some of them routinely and cross-reference more recent ideas and images with older ones, but I rarely dig down deep through the layers.
Now I'm older I look at them again and whereas before I saw them merely as a currency - a source, marker, reference, or a record - now I recognise them as small autonomous pieces of work.
