I decided to stay with the graphite stick and the ammonite, using the matching-sized paper to rest it on and marking its outer extremities. I felt more sure-handed this time and applied more pressure. And because I'm more familiar with the object included more detail -- lines and a little shading. On to the pear, using a permanent (a mistake I think as it came through the paper and I was very tempted to tear it out) pen. Moral: know how your equipment works. The outline roughly matches, but the attempt at shading isn't convincing.Labels: Day 3
