Cup and saucer

18 Nov. I practised a few more times with charcoal and with pen-and-ink.
Finally I did this one using both mediums. Its about 8"x6" and, as ever, looks a bit softer than the compressed photo can show.

Drawing - I've finished chapters 1 & 2.

Having finished the first two chapters the drawings below plus some others have been sent to my tutor for comment.

Since posting the drawings here I've spotted some mistakes. Its interesting how seeing them on the screen shows up things I hadn't noticed before.

By the way the white marks on the drawings are where I've used Tippex correcting fluid. (The student's instructions sometimes allow this.)
