Back to less and horizontal.
Still working with graphite marks. These are almost like I drew them with my left hand. I couldn't possibly draw with my left hand on the iPhone. Purely experimental

The third drawing in this graphite series.
Still working within the same toolset. Can't wait to use what I've learned on paper.

Drawing two in the graphite series.
Enjoying creating gauze-like backgrounds. Horizontal again. I'm finally feeling more comfortable with them.
Love making these little pencil scribbles.

Switching back to a horizontal group of drawings.
I love drawing with graphite. I love all the grades of softness that I can use to make marks based on pressure. I can use the same amount of pressure and use a different grade and get a completely different line. I can choose a hardness that no matter what I do I get the same line. It's a whole different set of tools.
These drawings are intended to have the graphite color space. I created a number of tools that would act the same for a series of drawings. This is the first. Now to see what happens.

Continuing with black and white. Only one special tool.
Quick marks.

Wanting to make the fewest marks.
Like dragging a vine charcoal across a newsprint pad.
Turning my finger this way and that twirling.

Working black and white. That's it.
Line.

Got a little tuned up on the energy in this one.
Took a little longer working on the drawing. Did some erasing this time. Just a little. I'm really into the tool I made with the multiple lines sorta like a comb. I'm thinking about what kind of tool I can make that mark on paper in my studio. I want a tool to add to my box — so I can call on it anytime.

Draw. Simple. Quick. Don't think. Repeat. #imakeart
