Today we created mid toned grounds on our paper from which to draw into with both plastic and putty erasers. We ascertained the light areas in the still life, and created those with our erasers, making some really interesting marks. We then worked back into the drawings with the charcoal, creating both depth and texture.
The resulting images are very atmospheric: some have a wistful, dreamy or ethereal look, whereas others have a dramatic and bold look. Fantastic work today, really well done everyone!
