Drawing Tuesday - Docklands museum

Next door to the museum, some strange "pods" had appeared outside the restaurant, cosy for eating outside in winter no doubt -
 Inside, the table beam caught my eye ... and proved difficult ...
 so I turned my attention to some nearby chains -
 ... with these results. "Perspective" of circles needs some observing and practice -
 Jo sat by the window and drew some workmen who were having a long chat -
 Carol found a combination of metal and cloth -
 Janet B fit the square capstan onto her square page -
 Janet K got to know the helmsman (painted wood carved in the style of a figurehead, 1850) - the trademark of mast makers Bawm & Co on West India Dock Road - it stood on their roof and was a local landmark -
 Sue found a rotary seive, early 20th century -
Joyce went whaling -
 Najlaa found 18th century china and glass -
 Judith used shades of grey for the poster girl, and white on black paper elsewhere -
 Extracurricular activities
Carol's colour homework - cloth collage

Janet K 's color collage
I did one too

Sue brought along a collograph (top left) and various prints, some with added stencilled ink, from a recent printmaking course -
A while back, Joyce made felt, with colours derived from a photograph -
 and Sue based a linocut on a drawing, then did a digital version, changing colours -
 Technique of the week -
