Playing w graphite

Redcap in war

I’m taking a figure drawing course. It’s fun. I just wanted to play w an idea so I grabbed my graphite sticks and went for it. Hope you enjoy this work in progress.

Swedish Snack

This giant pile of Swedish fish was more than this pelican could resist. While red is the most common color of these gummy treats, they come in a variety of colors.

This piece is done on Bristol vellum paper stratholm 500 series. 28 copic markers were used. I use this particular paper for most of my art because it absorbs more ink than marker paper and allows me to get a depth that is otherwise difficult to achieve.
