Luna Park — Photo and sketch: watercolour, gouache, brush and ink











As part of a research project for uni, back many many years ago, I visited Luna Park to snap some photos. Perhaps if I had visited as a child instead of having my first experience while in my 20's I could have looked at the park a bit differently, with nostalgic eyes. But alas the curiosity I'd always had with the external face facade was dimmed somewhat as the wonderment hoped for just didn't match.  It's funny though revisiting the photos now I could almost fool myself otherwise.  A sentimental mind can sometimes play tricks.
