i'm going to clear out my head, i'm going to get myself straight

I've been cleaning up my house recently. And cleaning up my act. I've always kept stuff 'for drawing'. For that day when I finally sit down and draw my stamp, matchbox, buttons, receipts, doll's heads (really), cork collections. Amongst many others.

    I've been doing something similar for the past few months too, giving stuff away or selling stuff on Ebay. Letting go is really hard! Lovely drawings as always. The corks are beautiful.

    I've given up on minimalism, every time I chuck something out I want it back a few weeks later. Just have to accept the clutter in the name of art...

    Your drawn corks like the REAL THING! Love them. (Minimalism is overrated, if you ask me.)
