I somehow forgot to post yesterday, so I'll have to double up another day. Anyhow, here is the drawing from Tuesday.
This was actually a surprisingly fun one to draw, in spite of all the tiny little details. I mean, I stopped where I did for a reason, which is that I wasn't looking forward to drawing more threads or zipper teeth. But still, it was cool to see the results of actually working carefully on those details.
I added the prompts for items 150-200 and now I have probably 150 slips of paper to choose from every time. When Every Day in May is over, I'm going to try to keep at it - not every day, but maybe a couple of prompts a week. It's good practice, I can't deny that.
This is wonderful, and yes, I understand why you stopped when you did.
Impressive!
xoxo

Excellent detail! I don't know how some people can make huge drawings with this much detail. For me, about this size and I'm done!

Thank you both very much! I, too, am in awe of people's ability to concentrate and maintain the sort of focus required to draw with that level of detail for long periods of time.
I was very pleased with the result, and I sort of wanted to continue, but I wasn't sure my brain and/or eyes would hold out!
