The British Museum acquires one of my silverpoint drawings

Today, a grey, chilly London afternoon, I had the delight of meeting Dr. Jenny Ramakalawon, Curator of Western Modern and Contemporary Graphic Works in the Department of Prints and Drawings at the British Museum.  I delivered a silverpoint drawing,The Weathered Cedar, that the Museum has acquired, a serious honour.

Even going into the wonderful hall lined with shelves, drawers and display cases full of treasures created by graphic artists down the ages was a thrill.  A humbling moment too, to think that I join the company of so many amazing artists in the Museum collections.
