SILVER VASE

I just missed the deadline for this  Paint and Draw Challenge June challenge by a few hours, the reason being that I was watching the final of the Wimbledon Tennis Championships. ( Andy Murray won a very exciting match) I sketched this very quickly with pastel pencils and I'm quite pleased with the result. Maybe I should give myself a time limit in the future. It would certainly stop me  fiddling!
