Old Phones Desktop

9x12 watercolor office still life painted today from my ink sketch yesterday.  I used Daler Rowney Langton Prestige 140 lb cold press paper with Daniel Smith paints.  Since there is minimal color here, I call these mostly neutral works 'value paintings'.  These old rotary dial phones are still in use as is the office No. 2 lead pencil and notepad on the proverbial desktop.  Remember how their cords became twisted and were never long enough?
