First post for my first blog. I was told to just do it. I was told the initial post would be awful but that everyone has to get past the first time. I have a lot of ideas and plans for this blog. I have to work out how to take good photographs and how to upload them. It is my project for year 2011,
My first step is to do some small, photo-sized drawings with woodless pencils on yupo. I don't like showing my bad drawings, but I think I need to do that, show the bad with the good for this project.
First question, Ann. I have never heard of a woodless pencil unless it would be a piece of charcoal. Clarify that one for me.
ReplyDeleteWhen I took George James' workshop he mentioned how beautifully woodless pencils did on yupo. They are pencils that are all lead. I found them in art catalogues but the experiments I described here are the only drawings I have done with them. I need to explore them more.
