this piece is my experiment with collage techniques and also using ink, PVA and emulsion on my work, if im honest i think its terrible due to it being poorly drawn in the first place, this is probably due to my lack of drawing skills anyway.

life drawing

here's a pencil sketch of the model laying down, i like this one because i think that i have managed to get most of the proportions right

here's another quick sketch of the model in the same position but drawn in charcoal then on over in ink, i did this to experiment with using ink and a stick, i like the effect that it create but i think i need more practice to use this technique effectively.

this is my first try at using chalk and pastel on black paper, i quickly sketched out the shape in charcoal so that i could get the basic shape, then went over the charcoal in white chalk, then finally used my pastel to highlight certain area's.
