Soft Pastel
These drawings came about by a happy accident. I made a mistake with a soft pastel, laying down a hard, black line on my page. Unable to correct it, I changed directions and used hard lines to create an entire image. That drawing led me to this method, where I use tape to section off portions of my underdrawing, and then use color blocking to fill in the image. I simplify the shapes—and at times distort them—to highlight the sharp lines.
