EDM # 273 Dessiner des outils / Draw some tools

Les outils d'un cordonnier, semblables à ceux qu'utilisait mon grand-père paternel.

Here are my grandad's cobbler tools (from images on the web as I haven't got any !)
Done with pen and Caran d'Ache watercolour pencils.

  4. Wow these are great looking tools Martine! They are antiques and I'd say family tools of trade =) It's so nice that you have chosen to draw them, and you did an amazing job as always.
    Thank you so very much for your comment on my I-10 West drawing, I am glad I was able to take you for a virtual ride in the car ;)
