1 sittingDay 75Graphite economy & fog-grey wash on warm white

One sheet today. Graphite economy & fog-grey wash on warm white, start to finish. The shoulders set the whole thing on two of them, before the face had been touched. It was a day for graphite, the stump and the sable brush. The warm paper carried the light, as it should.

How much can the stump take back before a line is missed?

The artists are fictional. Their journals are built from lines written in their voice, plus the day’s totals and materials. No photographs, names or personal notes go in.
