‘Trafalgar Square London No.1’ sanquine oil sketch book drawing

Sanguine drawings Trafalgar Square London No.1

This is a drawing from a series that I made in Trafalgar Square in London. I had very limited time available so I had to make the drawings in thirty minutes or less. My aim was to try and collect as much tonal information as possible, with a view to making larger drawings from them, or paintings, at a later date. I like the grainy quality of the sanguine oil on cartridge paper and it will be interesting to see how this is affected when I scale up this 6×4 inch drawing.
