Self-Portraits No. 5 and 6 — white on black paper (Gelly Roll 08 A6/ Graphitint A5)
Okay, these are probably my worst pieces of work so far. 🫣 That’s why I’m going to post them both at once—and then they’ll be gone. 😬
I didn’t think it would be so hard to draw with white on black. I thought it might be kind of interesting. Unfortunately, you can see every single stroke—even the ones that are way off. (Especially these ones!)
Never again!

@Tini@mastoart.social I don't think I'd enjoy drawing on black paper because it's ALL backwards. I want to start using brown craft paper so I get to use white pastel just for some highlights. It looks nice whenever I see it used that way.
