back to classics
after so many crazy stuff I always need to back to "more realistic" works,
in this case I was trying some new paper I just bought and came across this
image from a book.
charcoal on paper, kneaded eraser and fingers. about 45x65 cm.

rough sketch in oil
I made this quick sketch in oil on a very thin and cheap paper I had used yesterday to make a 5 min sketch on charcoal during a life class, as still some lines remain. while quickly covering the surface in oil I also covered one finger (had you realized?) which I should "pinkily" add again, and also now seeing the pic on cell screen, i notice how odd the vase looks like, so I have to correct that too but I guess it's part because of the low light when i took the photo. maybe i'll take it into a bigger composition, who knows. I only used B and W + little blue and magenta.

Self portrait
A draft made with an old & worn out marker, over a cardboard on which I had
pasted some pieces of newspaper. Later I applied temperas with a piece of
wood like a painter's knife. I chose cyan yellow and magenta, but only the
first is pure. Also used some white tempera. I added charcoal lines at the
end.
