    The Story of sharing

I know that I have learned so much from others - sometimes it has been their expertise that I have listened to, read or interacted with some other way, and I acknowledge this at the start of my book on

    Thinking Hands - Tänkande Händer

    By Nona Orbach for #GrammarOfDrawing - translated into Swedish by Suzanne Axelsson and into Italian by Roberta Pucci. A phenomenological observation in search of the blueprint.

We can try to write down actions and verbs: what are they doing? 2.6 toddler is holding a pencil sharpener in his left hand. A plastic container with pencil leftovers is on the table between his body and th
