Life Drawing 28/10/14

Using a hand made ink pen and sumi ink made for some interesting results when trying to capture a live pose. It was hard to avoid a making tone that was too dark, so I resorted to a lot of small lines to represent shadow, which worked with mixed success. When working on the thick A2 paper I found an affective way of achieving a midtone was scraping away the ink and dyed wallpaper paste with the side of my ink pen.
