Making marks and lines and edges

For the three pieces I have chosen, I have written some words and done some simple drawings to capture some of the qualities of each piece. As the pieces are in a museum I am not able to handle or rearrange them but what drew me to each of them was the decoration so I have concentrated on this.

I need to come back to this exercise and try some larger scale drawings and do more line drawings using different techniques. I know I need to move out of my comfort zone!!
