I have a love of handmade wooden things, especially dolls and old toys. This is my collection of French Wooden dolls.

EDM 30 A Chair


This is THE MOST COMFORTABLE chair in which to think, read, drink coffee, natter, sketch, be. Sketched with a Staedtler Triplus Fineliner in about half an hour. Another "no fuss" approach to this task. I am enjoying the fact that quantity brings with it courage in drawing. 'Just Do It' is my new guideline.

EDM 29 Something Architectural


Have been grappling with perspective for the last 3 weeks at art classes. Love this local church and am pleased with my "no fuss"approach to this sketch.

EDM 28 An Appliance


I chose a shaver for my appliance, because they don't get much use here in November - in support of Prostrate Cancer Awareness, the men grow moustaches so it's called "MOvember ". This was my first attempt at using a fine black ballpoint pen and not too shabby a result I thought.

EDM 27 A Book or Books


I guess this pile of books sums up quite a few of my interests. For sure, I never get tired of their contents.

EDM 26 Anything You Like


This cute little pin cushion was give to me years ago by a fellow calligrapher and sits on my desk. It reminds me that we all need to hold hands to make the world go round.
