3rd entry for Sept 28, 2015

These are some 10-minute studies and a 15-minute one at bottom. I was experimenting with some more broken-up shading marks, to get away from super-crisp edges.
These are all Pitt medium pen on 18 x 18" sheets of Canson Recycled Sketch paper.

On the Monday evening, Dorrie was at the White House Art Project. These are some 1-minute and 2-minute study done with a medium point Pitt pen on 18 x 18" sheets of Canson Recycled Sketch paper.

The afternoon was a 2-hour pose. This is on an i8 x 24" sheet of Revere paper, done with a pencil undersketch, ink washes for base values and oil-based pencil on top.

It was the end of a heavy week, and I was not rushing in heading over to the Jam Factory Collective's Sunday session. Addi was working that day. I did get there in time for two 10-minute studies, two 15-minute ones and a 20-minute at the bottom.
The top four are Pitt pen on Canson Recycled Sketch paper, and the bottom one is Pitt pen and Progresso woodless pencil on Canson Drawing paper. All of these are on 18 x 24" sheets.

3rd entry for Sept 25, 2015

From the top, these are three 10-minute studies, two 15-minute ones and a 20-minute one at the bottom.
The top one is Pitt pen and Progresso woodless pencil on Canson Drawing paper. the next two are Pitt pen on Canson Recycled Sketch paper.
The third from the bottom is a cool gray Derwent Graphitone water-soluble pencil on Cansion drawing
paper. The second last is Pitt pen and Progresso pencil, and the final one is straight-up Graphitone on Canson XL watercolour paper.
All are on 18 x 24" sheets of paper. Over the past while I have found some promising materials combinations, but no one has totally `clicked' as a perfect vehicle for 20 minutes and under. Maybe none other than Conte and newsprint ever will,  but I keep trying things out.
