Default deleting shapes with VBA code

I have a worksheet that containes a number of shapes (pictures). The number
could range from 1 to 30. I want to deleate all the shapes at one time
EXCEPT for one particular shape.
With the code below I can select all the shapes in the worksheet and delete
them. The problem is it also deletes the one shape I want to retain.

Set myDocument = Worksheets("Form-99")
myDocument.Shapes.SelectAll
Set sr = Selection.ShapeRange
Selection.Cut

I tried setting a range of column Q; all the shapes I want to delete are in
the Q column but there is also data in the column I don't want to delete, I
only want to remove the shapes. The problem is that this method only deletes
one shape for each time it runs, it doesn't delete all the shapes with one
run cycle. I tried deleteAll with the range code but it didn't work. Thanks
for any help you can offer.

Sheets("Form-99").Select
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Signature").Select
ActiveSheet.Shapes.Range(Array("Q8:Q74")).Select
Selection.Cut
