98 - OVERLAPPING DESIGN - DAVE EDWARDS - INK - 1985

This was influenced by Celtic art but is purely imaginative.

Thanks Tom.

I used compasses and pencil and then went freehand over the lines witha pen.

Thanks Maureen.

The older we get, the more we have to return to :) I have much more to return to than you of course. I just meant you are slightly over 21 (or is that a secret?)

I’ve always loved doing cross-hatching :)

Thanks Catherine.

Many thanks Anita. You do realise I used a compass to pencil in the lines and then freehanded it after that. The design was all my own work of course. Just wanted to set the record straight as I wouldn’t want to be featured under false pretences.

Don’t despair. You own the same brain you owned when you did the doodles (a derogatory term I don’t use myself) so if you can do them once, you can do them again – or better. In future, keep all your “doodles” and you can use them to do paintings from at some stage. To me a “doodle” is an inferior drawing, but I’m sure your “doodles” are great. A more impressive term for doodles is “preparatory sketches” :)

Thanks Chris. Not intentional. As it is Saturday night I can only think that the beer must be really strong where you live :)

Thanks Anita :)

Thanks Sonya.

Thanks Roseann

This was done 24 years ago. I am now an impatient crotchety old git aged 59 – haha :)

Many thanks. Little did I realise 24 years ago that this would one day be featured on the Internet. I still had 14 years to go before I would first try to use a computer.
