EDM 40 - Draw something with folds

A beautiful gift from my lovely friends....not easy to capture the woven red silk in colour or texture (so stopped before I messed it up)

Thank-you boys!

EDM 288 - Draw something with spots

Work gloves, not sure if these are really spots....
I bought these from our local hardware shop thinking they'd be fun to draw.........
they were, and I didn't let myself draw every stitch.
Thanks for all your comments and support on the last post.
