Shell #3


This is the third shell drawing we had to do, but the first that involved ink wash. I've never worked with ink before, so this was definitely a fun experiment. In most of my works, I have a very controlled style, but I realized that didn't work well when working with ink and water! I tried to control the drips and where the ink would spread, but that was difficult. It's better to not fight the medium you're working with. For the next, and final, shell drawing, I'm going to try to let loose and let the ink do what it wants rather than being so controlling.
