This sketch is of my precious watch which has been in the family for three generations and now needs a little TLC.

My watch was not on my wrist, instead in my pocket as it hasn’t been working and I had hoped this would remind me to drop it off at a repair shop.

I was early for a meeting in the museum on chambers street so had a coffee and placed the watch on the table in front of me to sketch. I had just bought some lovely thick hand made paper from Cass Art on George street so wanted to try it out with a little watercolour.

I loved the texture from the paper and the colours of the leather and shadows came out great.
