Arguably, a collection - even one as vast as a museum collection - is based on certain similarities in the objects admitted to the collection. Also arguably, it is the differences in these objects that make the collection interesting.
From Carol - Charlie the parrot puppet and his little ‘Charlie’ helpers who all helped me teach phonics to Year 1 back in the day. The little Charlies were out for hide and seek games in the garden this week with my grandson. There used to be 20 but some seem to have flown off into little hands over the years.
From Gill - I was given some lovely sun flowers at the weekend. Here’s two of them.
From Ann - For an online life session last week the same pose...but different!
From Sue K - Two victorian 'light reflectors' - found on a vintage stall, now hung in our window to catch prisms.
From Judith - A trainer is always good to sketch!
From Joyce - Leaves from my garden,inked up with mini ink pads in two shades of green. Some have similar veining and some similar shapes.
From Richard - Similar/ different/negative; very lazy photo submission. Is anyone else staring at these things, thinking there should be some way to reuse them? Rather bad taste, I suppose.
From Mags - Nasturtium flowers gathered for splash of colour on ' Et tu Brut' chicken caeser salad , manipulated in Photoshop
From me - Two plates, one a Wedgewood willow pattern and the other anonymous, but of the same ilk - it has the bridge, the pavilion on the island, different sorts of trees, the boat - but no birds. I started centrally and worked outward, using pen (no eraser). After an intense hour on the traditional plate, I had to lightly pencil in the main areas; after doing that, I could work on the other without any pencil drawing, just "hope for the best".
The bit of loose pencil drawing (barely visible on the left page) made it possible to get back to using just the pen on the right. Even so, I didn't put in all parts from each plate, nor the borders.
