Art Supplies:

2B, 4B and 6B charcoal pencils
smudge stick
ellow and flesh colored watercolor pencils
sharpie marker


Ok, I went back and tried out the eraser art page. It turned out better than I expected it to. I had originally intended to do a face of some kind, but just couldn't wrap my head around it.

I couldn't sleep the other day, so I got up and started to journal what was in my head, and this is what came out. It is a set of hands holding the light of the sun.
I used a scribbled background of 2B, 4B and 6B charcoal pencils, and then smoothed it with a smudge stick, then I "drew" with my kneaded eraser until I got the outlines I was looking for.
Lastly I added some light yellow and flesh colored watercolor pencils to give it a little more dimension.

I wrote the words with my trusty sharpie marker. :)

~ I like the soft and sublte shading of your eraser art... to me the thumbs of the hand almost look like they are encircling the eyes of the sun ... who is seeing whom .. who is supporting whom.. a mutual exchange ..giving and receiving
