After The Purge...

As I slugged through the previous piece, this new idea emerged. 
I drafted it out in my journal in black pen...


...added a little indian ink wash,
a little water to some cheap coloured TYPO pens I bought at the Plaza, 
and a bit of coloured pencil. There's a gut feeling when it works, an intrinsic sense of balance and completion, not always able to be taught.


From the small journal drawing emerges this work.
1150mm X 900mm.
PITT Extra Soft Charcoal,
ART SPECTRUM Titanium White,
STAEDTLER Mars Lumograph 7B Graphite Pencil,
and a hint of Blue and Red pastel.
Drawn on 210gsm brown Kraft Paper.
