DRIED FARE
In China dried foods abound. This composition is of dried sardines, mushrooms, chokra and chestnuts. I used pen on paper to create fine lines and enjoyed the amount of detail and sharpness that the subjects naturally lent themselves to. Once I had looked at the drawing I realised that two vertical lines presented themselves so I decided to add them in and was pleased with the result - they seem to break the sweep of the fish moving in from right to left but also to emphasise it - furthermore, I felt that the composition is a little bit more experimental and its forcing me to start looking at things in a less conventional way - I hope to be growing in this regard.
Sketchbook practice for this composition.
