Old Time Keys in Graphite

With this one I really wanted to fill the page with keys but this is as far as I managed before calling it done.

It was just one of those days where I couldn't focus (still under the weather) but I wanted to at least do a little something.

From a photo my dear friend, Clare, sent to me.  I love these old time keys!!!

  2. Thank you so much for the get well wishes and for the sketch. I do have a little boo boo in this scan which I have since fixed. The big key is missing a part that should be showing inside the key ring of the key overlapping. Oops.

  3. I love these keys--great dimension! I didn't even notice the missing part until you mentioned it to another commenter! Have you ever seen any of Andrea Joseph's drawings of keys? This sketch reminded me of them. I hope you feel well again soon.
