This triptych shows a continuous stretch of forest but divided into three distinct sections each demonstrating a different approach. The left hand image is drawn in pure line. What tone there is, is done as hatching, exclusively in pencil. The centre image is more developed in that tonal values are expressed in graphite and with some charcoal underlay, - almost a "painting" using drawing materials. The image on the right of the triptych, being in colour is rather more painterly but drwing elements remain. The colour was laid down as watercolour but not placed too accurately. Then, once the paper had dried,it was overdrawn using the techniques outlines before. The object of the colur is to provide tinting in much the same way as early black and white photographs were tinted. Not a true dense colour but simply an indication. This work is intended to bring attention to the drawing.
I shall post the three separate images over the next few days so that it can be examined in more detail.
