Notes
I have been struggling with the process of visualizing anything and putting it to paper, as though all the shapes and visual impressions have gone away. Whether from stress or whatever, this has been cutting in and out on me since about a month before the whole muscle decline thing got intense and I had to start using a cane.
This image cropped up while fighting for that ability, and I didn't question it, I just grabbed the bristol pad and scribbled it down as fast as I could. It's nothing special, just mars pencils and a couple of tortillons, and a defiant refusal to erase and refine where I knew I went a little wrong. I have been erasing myself into a panic every time my hand twitches, and it twitches a LOT.
Although I usually smudge pretty bad working up to 4B and using a tortillon, the whitespace on this one came out a lot cleaner than this. I added noise while laying in the blue, because the look appealed to me a bit more than smoother colour.
