2009 - Sept - Harbour rope

Graphite on textured ghesso and board

Overall, my explorations over the summer have been successful and it’s a style I will return to in the future. It has been frustrating at times when the surface has prevented me from being as neat in my usual detailed style but overall I am pleased with the results and plan to take this further.

Graphtint pencil over graphite powder  & gum arabic on textured paper     20 x 20cm

I love textures – smooth, sandy, wooly, shiney, rough, wet  ….. and I love capturing them with my pencil.

Over the summer I prepared several sheets of paper to create various textures to explore  working my  detailed drawings  into a textured surface.

I love working like this, looking for images in the texture and colours

to work into means I have little control of what I paint.
