It gives me much enjoyment, makes me smile, and gives me that happy feeling of having spoken with a good friend. I love today's art work, love Autumn, love leaves.

I will try again. I may not have been very good at leaving comments just lately, bu I have definitely been reading it each day and loving it all. The varied and soft colours of those leaves are so beautiful and added to it one of my current favourite sentiments. Then you add my favourite charcoals (let's face it, I love all things Derwent) to produce those subtle shadows. Beautiful! xxx Maggie<br />PS don't forget you have one of those gorgeous electric erasers from Derwent which can get into the tiniest space to remove even a tiny dot. xxx Maggie<br />DeleteMaggieC (Silvercrafter)https://www.blogger.com/profile/13560733295194874288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012372152948410381.post-74477745301551790542014-09-22T22:13:32.875+01:002014-09-22T22:13:32.875+01:00Loved the leaves and the card.

I like the technique with the charcoal and paper stubs, what depth. My daughter has got an electric eraser (I know how posh!) think it's by Derwent which she uses to add shading etc, her art teacher loved it!! Thank you for your daily blog, you make me think, you make me laugh, you make me want to try new things and you make me want to have everything! It's a great blog and I try to read and comment every day, so you know there are people out there. I hope you have had a relaxing day and the chilly morning and evening doesn't deep into your new loft room. Take care and sleep well.
