Pepper Mill


I am enjoying making these sketches. I like the place my mind goes to when I'm drawing. But I'm finding it difficult to find things I want to draw.

I think I might just be too picky. I thought this pepper mill would be boring to draw, but I really like how it turned out. So maybe there are more things than I think that would good make subjects for future sketches.

Now I need to work on getting the photo right so that when I adjust the levels, the background totally drops out.

Another good one. Why not scan the image? That way you get the right exposure maybe.

Hey Brooke, you can't post date your sketches for July. It will drive us nuts.
Your Hand piece is wonderful and I can hardly wait to see the outcome.
Keep up the good work.
