This is one hard-working spoon, used by generations of students for making linoleum prints. It has rubbed so many japanese rice papers against linocuts that it can´t keep count of them all. It´s been bent (not Uri Geller style, more muscle-power style by frustrated students), handled, spilled on, painted, cleaned, hit, dropped and mistreated by so many hands, but it has also helped producing hundreds of wonderful prints. I wonder if anyone ever used it for eating?

Wonderful spoon, Nina! I like how brave you are with with colour!
TERRIFIC!!!
Wonderful! I love those little splashes too, there's a lovely contrast between the 3D spoons and the flat paper.
Beautifully composed and painted!! Love those spots of color.
Very cool representation of a hard working spoon!--

Great drawing and composition and I love the way you captured the spoon's history with color and shape.
I love the loose quality of your colours. I've always been afraid of watercolours - feel like I have less control with them - but you've inspired me. Thanks!
Really nice - love the colour.
Great composition--it seems to be working even now! Beautifully drawn too.
This is a lovely, fun drawing - I use a spoon for lin prints too - much the best, I think.
Now that's one hardworking spoon! And a goodlooking one, too!
awesome sketch:>
