As our moving day encroaches I've upped the throwing out of stuff speed somewhat . . . including tackling the shared art materials chest of drawers which lives in Ezra's room. There were numerous 'oh, look at that' moments as we went through his various sketch books, and then pauses - so do you want to keep it? Er . . . do you?
On the whole, not keeping was the decision. So I took a few photos to record a scattering of the thousands of interesting draftsmanship attempts/scribbles and rather wonderful drawings, and put aside the ones that would be kept. No doubt these will remain in another drawer and be rediscovered in a decade or two. But that's fine. 80% of it cleared away is quite an achievement. No regrets, and enough preserved to look back over and recall the various phases of his earlier art experimentations.
