Working on this particular body of pieces was, for me, a return to a technique I haven’t used for quite some many years-drawing with charcoal pencil- and, hardly ever use at all in the style of painting which I am known for. On a few of them I wanted, however, to set myself to incorporating the current process I employ that has been most ever prevalent in the recent works I have created. I have selected a few of these for you to enjoy along with documentation of the steps involved.
