This is a piece from 2001 entitled "Eleventh Hour". There is a more completed version of this on file, but I chose to use the early pencil version in this instance. The results appear encouraging.
I then went on and tried applying texture to a 2004 drawing called "By The Fire" and this time tried to make it more natural looking. It almost looks like it was drawn on the back of an old envelope!
Whether using paper textures will work on some of my more flamboyant pictures remains to be seen. Watch this space!

Well done!
You have so much patient on the detials!
I like these with the texture added, it gives the work a story. But then I love old paper. I always save the blank end pages from old books and use them for copies with my laser when I don't want to cut the original image for a collage. It gives a certain patina. Great illo here!
