Head Study #115

Tonight I present another JSS charcoal drawing of Ruth Draper from 1913.  Googling her I see she was an actress that specialized/developed the character driven monologues and monodrama.  I'll back update this one too when I finish the last stage.

Paper: NY Central, 140 lbs, hot pressed, 15 x 22"

























Update: This was the first try with gouache paint.  I think if I keep it simple it may work.  What I'm trying to accomplish is while printing a black and white JSS charcoal drawing, the printer malfunctioned and printed a colorized version.  I'm trying to duplicate that.
