Description Hey everyone!!

7th drawing in this 2023 Inktober   I'm late uploading, but not drawing, so I'll post 2 drawings today  

3rd and last drawing of something mechanical (the next prompts will be mostly cartoons/movies and landscapes).. For this one, I went to the foot of my building for ref., because there are 5 of these water taps that are used for washing and gardening purposes; among them, one was dripping last spring, and I remembered that when I saw this prompt, because I helped one of my neighbors when he was repairing it...

This was quite a simple drawing and yet, I was surprised, when I started sketching, by how many different parts make a water tap... I guess it's one of these everyday things we never take notice of because they are always around, and then, once you want to repair one or draw one, you realize what a complex structure hides there... For the water drop that has just arrived on the floor, I googled for refs and it's truly interesting, the shapes that a drop of water takes when it hits a surface!! 
So, all in all, a simple drawing, but a very interesting one if you are interested in the underlying structures of things we see every day... 

I wish you all some time to notice small, everyday things today  


Made with:
- Faber Castell Pitt markers (Black: XS, F)
- Edding 1200 Silver pen
- Pastel Stabilo Highlighter (for the water)
- on Papier & Kunst sketchbook, A5, 130mg paper
