Pear (detail)
graphite stick on 90lb Stonehenge paper
5 1/2 x 5 1/2 inches
I sometimes find that with certain media does not scan well, especially on Stonehenge paper. My scanner seems to penetrate the graphite (or oil pastel or crayon or colored pencil), washing out areas and leaving others dark and clumsy. I’ll have to see how photographing this one works, because the scan is pretty bad.
Also, I found that Miss Brown is smitten with pears. I had a difficult time convincing her to leave it alone long enough for me to draw it. And then, I was a meanypants and put it up out of her reach.
