This computer-stylized version of a painting (which was based on a
Google Streetview of Carleton University) will be used to illustrate Chapter
3 of the multi-generational creative nonfiction journal I’m writing. It
occurred to me just after I’d completed the painting that, as Chapter 3 begins in
1958, before most of these buildings on the Carleton University campus were
built, I’d been a bit too creative. So, I will have to render them into an
ethereal future projection and work that into the story. Somehow.
