Default Drawing for a very large scale piece
This is a sort of stream of consciousness drawing I'm doing which has inspired a series I am going to attempt to engrave on 10" x 24" steel plates. This one is 13" x 24" and will be ink and paper but the others will be metal and I will print from them however they are meant to stand alone as fine art pieces. Practice, practice, practice....

Very much a work in progress:
