Drawing Tuesday - Tate Modern

Several of us caught the Franz West exhibition in its last week and enjoyed the 2D and 3D work. Sue was in the right place at the right time -

 Some of the quirky objects ...

 This stack of hats covered in papier mache is what I settled down to draw -

Janet B drew my attention to these

 and I had a quick go along with some other half-hearted scrawls (not worth showing!) -- she'd already done a much better job of it -

(they sure look like politicians to me...)

 and of Joyce at work -

Joyce's work -

And Sue's -

 Najlaa was inside and outside -

Janet K was interested by Dorothea Tanning's textile sculptures (till 9 June) -

On the way to the Tate, Jo had captured a bus passenger -

 Carol had brought along some stone and pottery treasures -

 ... and while on holiday had spent much of her time drawing, for example the cheery stove and the dogs for sale at the post office of all places - 

 Janet K's extracurricular subjects -

These pencils that Carol brought along for us will need a knife or scalpel for optimum use -

I think Franz West would have liked them. Here's a collection of objects that he made to be played with -

 ... and some more of his 2D work ...

 ... including painted and collaged cardboard pieces nearly a metre long -
