#8 PEDALS....

You would assume that if you (or your hand memory) had mastered 'ovals' it would be a cinch to move on to 'circles,' no?  well, the answer to that is...no!  At least not a large circle...too long a line to think through and the thinking is evident via wiggles in the line.  Again i laid down some pencil figuring it would give me lots of lines to choose from in trying to ink in a circle.  This was fun....and while you may still see some flowers here, it was a relief not to fret over them exclusively.

    I think the few "wiggles" really gives it a lot of charm. Maybe we should all try drawing with our left (not dominant) hands.

    Oh, good, good, good! I am now doing a happy dance.
    Wiggles and all I'm glad it struck just the right cord with viewers. Those are all the thoughts I wanted to inspire with this simple line drawing. You've made my day, back to the studio!
