Looks like a big improvement, hopefully you're pleased/ proud. I would be.

Some new work, colored pencil and wax oil pastel on Lanaquarelle 300lb. (640 g/sm) cotton cold-pressed watercolor paper…

@adam313  The best part about your beautiful work is, I have no idea how you make it. It adds to the mystique

Thank you chief!

I have a few photos that could help illustrate the process.  These poor iphone pics weren't taken with a "step-by-step" sequence in mind (more just as a reference photo to keep me thinking while I'm at work), and I don't have photos of each stage, but hopefully these might give an idea of the evolution that the paper has gone through.  It's much like a pair of jeans hopefully, in that the paper reflects the life it has lived…Thanks for looking!

So I would love some impressions, any impressions, bad, good, it all helps….I'm trying out some new possibilities.

This is going to be a new type of series for me -- as opposed to the artwork in the above post ^^^ which is more like a smorgasbord of colored pencil -- this series will be more focused and minimal.

Still in progress but close...

Much appreciation, @Black Orchid!

It's getting closer…

And this is the cotton paper pulp that gets ripped up during the process of drawing lines and writing/scribbling…
