A Mess

More graphite stick experiments. I've found it is difficult to draw over the top of graphite sticks once they have been placed. Rubbing the dust into the paper creates a surface that is too slick to allow more graphite onto it. Just like watercolor - it seems the best way to work is gradually from light to dark. It's a mess, but it's a mess I can learn from.

Trying out a challenge to myself - to create "finished" pieces with a limited color palette on a consistent schedule. I am still working out the final guidelines. I think I would like to challenge myself to use a new texture in each piece as well. I've had this unfinished sketch in my sketchbook forever. Even though I'm not entirely happy with it - it feels great to finally have it done!
