In a workshop I made lots of strips full of marks, made using only a small selection of tools. It is not something I am used to, as a lot of the marks were very uncontrolled, but it really helped me loosen up and I feel like it has kickstarted my productivity a lot! Using these techniques in my sketchbook will make it much more vibrant and interesting.
After I exhausted all of the tools I challenged myself to do an observational drawing using only a selection of these marks, no pen or pencils aloud! I really enjoyed this way of working, and it created some interesting, and...terrifying drawings that I am really proud of. Seeing these results encourages me to experiment more fearlessly in the future.
