Late summer porch

Here is a shot of some of the stuff that has sat a few years on the porch. The metal chair, one of two, came in the truck from Monrovia, CA when Gramma Lottie came to KS. The chairs are nearly indestructible- who knows how many times they have rolled off the porch in a summer squall.  The "Snake plant" came from the neighbor.  It was in the piano drawing of last winter. Done on 11? x 16" paper with the .9mm 2B lead. These drawings take a little time to do. Sitting for an hour or more to get the main drawing done, maybe over the course of a day or two, and then finishing up the details and tweaking them here and there over the next days.
