Welcome

This is about improving our drawing experiences, and hopefully have something to build on and expand our critiques. If you have a drawing you want to talk about, you should be able to post pictures and comments. If you have difficulty, just email me! Should be fun! Thanks!

CAM life draw 10-7-14 funky paper and new tools

I left my head and my paper home so I borrowed some watercolor paper. Drawing was hideous, so I decided to tinker with it by scrubbing it with wet paper towels. Drawing was still hideous, but discovered that colored graphite can turn into ink when you wet it. Only problem: this paper has some funky something in it; when you wet it a peculiar odor wafts up to your nostrils. Smells so bad I can't keep it in the studio - so it sits outside on the porch!
This drawing is 1 of 3 of the same pose, done with wet paper, wet soft graphite sticks and manipulating the graphite with paper towels, mr. clean sponges, etc.
