Still Life

When I was a little girl I drew and drew and drew. Both my parents went to art college and my Dad set up and ran the sculpture course at Norwich School of Art so I suppose you could say it was in my blood.  My favourite thing to draw were still lives and even when I went to art college I was mad about painting pots and bowls.  This evening I popped some fruit down on the table for Ottilie to draw, who is 6, and this was her finished piece.  I love it so much I wish I had drawn it myself.  I think drawing is good for the soul and particularly when you're little and learning to make sense of the world.
