take a pinch of keyhole

(Click on drawing to view)

This drawing had all the ingredients to be great. A beautiful subject matter courtesy of my friend Annette. Stunning colours. Heaps of nostalgia. And hours of time to simmer. Somehow, for me, it falls short of being an extremely tasty dish.

Everyday Matters #37, draw some keys.

Perhaps the negative space doesn't have the AJ madness I've come to admire. Nonetheless, a great meat and potatoes drawing. The Budapest gulyas with just the right amount of paprika is just around the corner.
Or does the title give me the clue that you meant it that way?

I think the cooking time was well spent!

Oh, and I just noticed my word verification thingy below fits in with the culinary theme: tominto (is that a minty tomato?)

Is it just me or is there a lot of fallopian tube going on in that drawing? Maybe it's trying to tell you something.

Couldn't agree more! So many keys and all different designs :)

Both an amazing collection and composition. My favorite moment is in the upper right hand corner. I love the ribbon linking the two keys.

Thank you all, folks.


Emma, I bought 'tomberries' in Sainsburys the other day. Teeny weeny tomatoes. Half tomato half berry. Very cute.

Cheers, my dears.

Pretty tasty! Maybe doesn't have the background you usually have, but it's lovely! :)
