Time to Peel

Here is another re-used (or if you prefer “re-purposed”) quick sketch from the lock-down era, intended if nothing else to burnish my credentials as an eco-artist!

This one was originally a simple pencil sketch of a potato peeler, which through the magic of a drawing app is now the hour hand on a kitchen(?) clock. To be honest I’m not sure why either, except that it is possible to do, so somehow had to be done! The minute hand is of course the same drawing but distorted and reflected to point in a different direction whilst keeping the shadow (sort of) consistent with the other hand. The hour marks are the same image again, this time without a shadow, and the colours remind me of the 1960s, the period during which amongst other things I learnt to tell the time.
