clothes peg by shannejw

clothes peg

Playing around with the mundane object and a couple of other ideas. Ages ago I was set an art exercise of drawing a square section of a familiar object in detail, showing the minimum required to be able to identify that object - and for that exercise I drew a peg in pencil, so the mundane object challenge seemed a good moment to revisit that. And using the dictionary page for the definition as a background is something else I've done before and worked better than my first attempts.

Just for reference, exactly the same picture made #17 Explore on Flickr.

@janim to my surprise it's made Explore on Flickr

@shannejw congrats!

@janim lol - it was more a reflection on how things are different in different places. It's using the cast off camera from my daughter because I lost the Sony in December and the new toy hasn't arrived yet, so there are all sorts of things I'm not happy about.
