Graphite

Some pages from my "graphite book" - experiments with darkness, 9B and 6B. The white areas were covered with torn masking tape -

On some pages, the masking tape is part of the "finished" page (but can make it too fussy) -

Incising lines before adding the graphite seems to have potential -

I loved the poster for the Graphite exhibition at the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge -

And in the exhibition, the range of forms of graphite -
