Today I had attempted to produce a skull rendered using black card and compressed charcoal (full grey set) which I applied using different shades to create the white skull developing on the contrasting element of each shade to create form.

Much of the process included using the various shades of charcoal including applying whites and greys and blending them together producing the contours of the skull. This was effetively a lone experiment that I had conceived when Richard had suggested looking into using white on black and
I liked how the monochrome image contrasted with the darkness behind it.
