Pattern

I so love the theme for this weeks IF. I reckon I could doodle away every night with this one. My nightly drawing doodles in my journal are usually of people, faces, eyes. Therefore, great to be able to draw a figure to represent the theme.
My burst of creativity took me on a new venture at the weekend with a revisit to pottery and throwing a pot on the potters wheel. What fun I had!!
