The week-end was a great success both for the club as well as for pencil art. The club had more than 850 entries.

Wiping off the last of the sand before school starts next week. Boy it's tough getting back down to business after having been in the groove over in Scotland for more than 2 weeks.

Great to be back though... missed my little graphite friends! A few of you are waiting for a email response from me: will be on top of things by the end of tomorrow.
