Day 4 January 30 x 30 2017

Love working on gray paper, somehow the quite tone speaks to me. Graphite stick caught some of the textures from the corrugated board I was using to draw on. Still scratching with the mechanical pencil. Like the addition of color, although very timidly

I am still finding it hard to work in a void especially since I have so many stimuli.  I just have to open a new tab on the browser and up comes a gorgeous  HD image from Unsplash

Day 3 January 30 x 30 2017

Here we are on Day 3 of the challenge. A small sketch done with graphite stick, mechanical pencil, smudging, and eraser eliminating. Very hard to erase graphite! Learning curve! The scan did pick up more smudges than seen with the eye!

Day 2 January 30 x 30 2017

Another cross motif. Still playing with graphite mechanical pencil 2B.  Such a wide variety of marks you can get from one pencil.
