Week 9: composition I

Compositions using Friskit Paper

In this step-by-step exercise you will be copying a design using charcoal pencils, leather chamois, friskit paper (regular printer paper), and an eraser.

The friskit paper is used to block areas from receiving value directly from a chamois or pencil, in order to create shapes. The friskit paper can also be used to preserve existing values and create new shapes by erasing.

 

This is what the completed drawing will look like.
