| Years ago, when I was a despatch rider,
I was riding through the City and was confronted by two enormous yellow
earth-movers that were taking this [early morning] opportunity to traverse
London. They were so big that any traffic that crossed their path had
to mount the pavement to avoid them. I followed them for a while and wished
I'd had a camera on me. Years later, I still find myself doodling this
memory, trying to recapture the scene. The thing about me is that when-ever
I draw 'from life' I always improve what I see, so here we end up with
a truck so gigantic that the cars can actually drive underneath it.
