LATE SKETCHING

Graphitint pencils.  Ordinary pencils are made of graphite, these are graphite with pigment & are also water activated.  Here I have used a water pen

Lovely new big tin, a birthday gift from my children yum!

This is the angle of the chair that I chose today

I do like the feet of this chair,

Capturing the angle is what appeals the most

This is the under pencil before activation

So hard to do in 5 minutes, the shadows became urgent marks aka scribbles!

I could not leave it like this so added another few minutes using the water pen

These pencils have a lovely matt effect.  they can be bought singly, which is what I had before the lovely pressie.

Trying to get form & shadow in such a short time is very difficult, but good discipline

Have not seen Dales yet, so am looking forward to seeing it now.

Have a go at doing this, take a small detail & explore using the wonderful Graphitint pencils
