Mornings in the studio

If the sun shines, there are shadows slanting across the worktable. Some are easier to catch than others! 




The white eggs make a change from having brown eggs, not that it makes a difference to the egg inside the shells -
I thought the white ones looked a bit crowded - social distancing, you know -
Ah, that's better


 Taking the opportunity to clear just a few inches of shelves -
Before - the discoveries behind the scissors pot

Souvenirs of the Designer-Makers degree show at Camberwell, a few years back

Old notebooks and sketchbooks - the tree is from the 1970s

Drawing by young Tom at a lunchtime concert in Oxford, 1982

From different eras: a favourite postcard and a wine label

After - just a bit more spacious
My inspiration - she likes to know how things work, and then get them to work, but she doesn't quite have enough manual dexterity and strength yet. But she's showing strong signs of perseverance; some would call it stubborness -

More morning moments -
There's time for doodling
Double doings - painting and shadow

Just a timely coincidence

 More discoveries -

Diversity, for a reason

2008, art foundation course - I used a drawing done at the National Gallery
from a Piero Longhi painting for a printing plate. Still like it, but the others are in the bin
