Nails and paperclips


Sometimes the most ordinary objects can be interesting and challenging subjects.

For these items, I sketched two of the nails from the original homestead of my great great grandparents house in South Dakota. The house is now gone but the nails remind us of a bygone era.

When looking for a paper clip to draw, I realized I had quite an assortment, so decided to paint them all! Those little objects turned out to be quite the challenge!
