Tools of the trade

Was bored again at work this afternoon – I really must look for a more interesting job!

I haven’t done any drawing or painting for years, but since joining Redbubble my creative juices have started flowing again. This is just a tiny sketch based on a photo I took of my own eye but I’m adding it to my gallery as a pledge to myself to get my pencils and inks out again.

Very original still life – you could hang this on the wall (stick the items down first though!) the drawing is really well done, so yes, you should get out the art materials and get going!!

Tessa, this is a brilliant sketch…I can’t believe you haven’t been drawing for years, as you obviously have a great , if latent, gift in this area. So please, please please continue to bless us with your wonderful work!

I also love the very clever commentary this is on your work ~ such an apt accompanying ‘title’!!
