#10 of 30. Folding clothes is really really difficult. Look, I’m not setting out to write the message that ‘anything is possible if you put your mind to it’, I’m sure that’s true and I can vouch for it, in some areas. Don’t tell me that practise makes perfect. But folding clothes is flipping near impossible to get right, at least for me. It’s like magic, I mean I am always constantly amazed at it, the spectacle never wears off, to the point where I don’t want to know how they do it. I don’t go to the theatre, I just go down to the Gap and watch them fold t-shirts.
I don’t really. But you know what I mean. Maybe.

Hi Pete! Haven’t been over here in a while (too many blogs, too little time), but these are great! I am a slapdash folder myself-no patience. I also love the library drawing—I also check out copious numbers of books that I never read–it is comforting to have them around, and then there’s always the option to pick them up. I mean, they’re free!
cheers! Yes, no time to fold, eats up time that could be better spent drawing. Or finally reading those library books (I always get books out about drawing, but never read them because I’m too busy drawing).
I wondered for a second if you were my husband in disguise. Folding shirts makes him break out in a cold sweat.
Really enjoying this series, keep them coming :)
I think you just need someone to show you how it’s done, because it’s really not THAT hard. Love this drawing!
no, i don’t, and yes it is that hard, for me. That’s the point of the piece.
This reminds me of some of the great editorial narrative styles I saw growing up in the 70s. Wonderful style!
cheers!
Funny pen and ink treatment with a very nice use of type. I’m sure Hamlet had trouble with this too.
I love your sketches, they make me see Davis (and the world) in such a fresh way; they are amazing and wipe away the jadedness of the work-week :)
This could easily be something my husband would say about me–that man can fold anything; myself, I’m much more of a laundry roller.
