How exciting! I got  a new FREE teacup today from T2 (with my purchases of 2 boxes of tea).

I went to get a new special cup for the launch of SketchingNow Edges and, guess what….I ended up with two. Oh dear!

My new ‘edges cup’ will be revealed during the course (you will have to wait longer for it to appear here on my blog). It was specially chosen to demonstrate an important edge concept and will be a nice elegant addition to my every growing collection. New colour and shape with a design that is of a quite different style to my other ‘everyday fancy’ cups.

But in the meantime, this blue checkered cup will be heaps of fun to draw!!! I wouldn’t choose the cup normally but how cool is it,  that its pattern is like hand-drawn graphite work? And just for the record, I wasn’t trying to be literal on this first sketch… but I guess you figured that out!

Ok! enough of a tea break. Back to work!
