March spiral drawing - common winkle

The common winkle is a lovely little thing that come in a variety of colours and shades. Yellows are my favourite and I can't resist picking them up. I do always check to make sure that no one is home before they head to my pocket. They look like little jewels in the rockpools and washed up on the shore. As you can see the child in me still sorts them into colours.

I think I may have collected rather a lot over the years....

Beautiful. They have a want a hug vibe, a snuggle in a blanket comfort.

Oh, I love these - they are like seeing sweets behind the glass, such a beautiful variety of colors. And, yes, you have collected a lot but it’s all research for your artwork - which is lovely!!

Hi Maywyn, thank you. They are a bit of a snuggle in a blanket aren't they :o) colourful, bright and protective. I think we could all do with a little bit of that. Best wishes to you.

Rhonda! You could help me justify anything ;o) definitely research!!! (Not hoarding - nope not me - I will use this excuse to gather for a long time.) Best wishes.
