Royal Melbourne Dental Hospital
O Monday I went to Royal Melbourne dental Hospital Emergency section. I got there at 7 AM and was either the first or second to get there. in the waiting foyer, in a glass display was an exquisite Aboriginal possum skin cloak.
There were some good subjects for drawing. The lady with walker had a book about cats and a bag with at pictures on it. She was going to have to spend a very large amount for her black and white moggy at the vet.
Inverleigh Zine Day

I sold a number of zines and swapped a few. I also drew some of the people. (One pic is not here as I sold it without taking a photo).
