Rustic Simplicity

Such an odd object to share... yet, I love the rustic charm and simplicity of this old pencil sharpener. As a child it was attached to the kitchen wall. Our lives were filled with coloured pencils, crayons, paints, clay, paper and plenty of leeway to create. This old sharpener reminds me of that freedom and I wonder at all it's seen. Now it’s in my studio, sitting beside more modern things like a flash drive and a digital camera. Nostalgia has the power to calm.
