Drawing Tuesday - Frieze sculptures

The sculptures associated with the Frieze art fair (3-6 October) are in Regent's Park till 6 October.

These "impacted" bollards caught my eye -

Challenge to self: use non-dominant hand -
Liberal use of rubber to remove smudging (B pencil)
For Robert Indiana's "Numbers one through zero" (1980-2001) -
my challenge was to use a felt-tip pen and straight lines -
Each number is about 8 feet tall
"Numbers one through zero" proved popular -
Judith's version (she had already drawn a different scene and said
that this one took "rather longer")

Carol's version (her challenge consisted of limiting the number of pens
she brought along)
 Sue fit "Numbers one through to zero" into the background -
In the foreground is "Strange Temporalities", by Toronto-based artist Ghazaleh Avarzamani - “a sculptural re-assemblage of a deconstructed slide, [which] embodies the failed assurance of safe enjoyment,” says her website.
Extracurricular activities

Judith had taken her sketchbook to Machynlleth -



Carol took the colours for the felt from a stone, and added "lichen" -
