Sketchbook Day 8

Drawing without drawing - suggesting the object by drawing just the surface pattern. Kind of like the stripes without the zebra.  I didn't have a zebra handy so I used a shell instead.  My first attempt with a serrated edge and paint didn't work so I tried again with the side of a piece of charcoal.

Scarey Jane! Both pages in your second photo capture perfectly the surface of a shell.

Absolutely brilliant idea! It works really well
