Not my best work, but I’m experimenting with graphite. It can cover well, lift nicely, create a moody atmosphere, has a great range in value, etc. Here, I’m doing some sketches that take some thought and some time, but I still rush through much of them as shown by the strange trees here and there. Some of these are tutorials from Smoothie77’s Patreon channel, and some are from my own reference photos, like the one directly below. Lighting makes a huge difference in how photos turn out, so some are on the blue side and others on the warm, yellow side, but they’re all done with the same pencils on the same paper, Canson Fluid multimedia (which I wouldn’t purchase again for graphite).
