opening, turn by turn




Our best and only can opener. We never went electric when others were buzzing 'round their cans. I guess this is now called the green method. But of course, I like pull-tab cans best!

Positive Thought: Every time we use muscle power instead of electrical, we step away from needing another drop of oil.

The top and bottom drawing were done with a water-soluble pen. I like the way the ink wash creates the feeling of light on steel, with absolutely no effort from me.

The one in the middle is watercolor pencil. Not successful at indicating a metallic surface.

All on Canson drawing paper.

I'm wondering why you have no comments on your sketches!? They are wonderful!
