Many thanks go out to Sabra Issa for the tutorial. I gave it a go with what I had. No grey toned paper so I trotted out to the recycling and cut up a cereal box. I prepared my substrate with clear gesso. Where there wasn’t any gesso the charcoal pencil wasn’t as dark. I didn’t add the scribble lines as I thought I should quit while I was still satisfied. The darn white gesso refused to dry so that was another factor as to why I chose to leave it as is. I was worried that I would become precious with the outcome so I used my non-dominant hand for 98% of this drawing. I will revisit this method of achieving an image as it was so relaxing to let go and just draw and make some marks.
