2009 - August - mussels on the rocks

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.

This is a beautiful Tudor church sits along side Thornbury castle. Built in the reign of Henry VIII – although parts are believed to go back to the 12th century, it was used by the King and his wife, Anne Boleyn and his daughter Mary Tudor lived there for a time. The large drawing looks down the churchfrom the altar towards the old carved wooden pews and one of the magnficent stained glass windows.
