More experimenting today with drawing on brown paper - possibly in preparation for a painting. The horse on the right is a second attempt to capture this gesture and is done in black charcoal with conte highlights in white and sepia. I will turn the drawing over so you can see the second drawing in the upright position.
You might be wondering about the positioning...... In order to do this drawing, I taped brown paper to a 24 x 36 canvas and did the drawings to maximize the drawing space!
Here they are individually in their correct positions.
Thank you for stopping by - and, as always, your comments inspire me and make me think!

A Day Spent with Pencil in Hand

| Three Horses / graphite on white sketching paper / approx 24x36 |
Trying to find a good composition for a possible painting I have in mind.. This is done on two pieces of 18x24 paper pushed together and is quite rough. You can see all the erasure marks and smudges all about the paper. But I am getting a feeling for where I want to go with this.
