More on the Footstool

I sat at my footstool and sketched on my iPad with the App Brushes and my Apple pencil.  It took soooo long.  I almost abandoned it.  I should have gone in the studio and played in the dust!

For Scavenger Hunt from Life 146  https://creativespark.art/threads/scavenger-hunt-from-life-146-jan-22-jan-30-2025.7660/

Number 1 metal and Number 2 ceramic  

The mugs are new gifts from Lou and Toby.  They are hand painted with reminders of New Mexico so each is a bit different.  The cups are very uniform in size.  Beautiful.  Love them....  My new favorite mugs.

The copper thing is a candle holder with holes for the light to peek out.  It doesn't look copper.  I should have taken a photo.  I'm sure you will have the opportunity to see them all again.

Great sketch of your new mugs and candle holder from your friend. Love them! Did she also make the candle holder?

Thanks, Joan. The mugs are perfect.... love them. The candle holder has a long match can for a fireplace I guess with it. Joanna gave them to us, she probably got them at a fund raiser.
