Chopsticks and Ink.

After dipping chopsticks in ink in my previous post, I have started experimenting more with it. It's SO FUN!

This was probably my most successful of the experiments I did. I just went with the flow of the lines and created this image of a woman's head. I had a bit of a problem locatiing where to put the nose but I think the final outcome worked quite well.

I'm thinking of creating more of these, perhaps on larger paper. I have decided to stray a little more away from fashion than I have in my recent projects, as my interests are starting to change and my personal style is developing.

I will continue to do some observational drawings using this technique of chopsticks and ink. It would be really interesting to do some life drawing like this!

It's interesting how this links to something I did earlier in the year using long twigs and black ink, to create an observational drawing of a wire sculpture I made. Funny that!
