Atlas of Everyday Objects in Drawings

Hi Rae

I very much liked your photos of everyday objects, and the word atlas made me think about how these objects represent places and relate to the geography of our houses and gardens. Taking your take on not trying to be a perfectionist, I did each drawing within a 10 cm square and didn’t try to perfect them, just took them as they appeared from my first attempt. I tried to use different media (biro, pencils, watercolours).

I think some are good, and some not so, (I also noticed spelling mistakes afterwards) but I’ll have to live with them, that’s life!

This can be my top tip for keeping sane whilst in lock down: keep attempting things, whether drawing, cooking, practicing Q.G, being still, sleeping, whatever it is, have a go.
