EDM #55 Doorknob

In my effort to catch up with EDM challenges, here is #55 - a perfect challenge inside on a cold winter evening - I decided this is the most interesting door and knob in my home (front door) so I pulled up a chair and spent maybe 10 minutes working on this then added some water color. I have to remember to stop, step away then take another look - then I would have seen the upper deadbolt lock was not in proper perspective. The gold color is adequate considering I only had a basic set of WC - I need to work on glass, the beveled glass is not well represented here. On the other hand, it was fun to depict the wood grain.

I love that color! It's perfect and the wood graining is great. If you hadn't pointed that dead bolt lock out I would not have seen it. (PS, I do the same darn thing-arn't we funny).

And it is a good thing to do on a cold winter day.
