    Looks great Margaret & also looks like a fair bit of work to get it to this stage.

  • Margaret Stock... replied

    Thanks Louise, there is a lot of work, but it’s also a lot of fun. Working out the technique & using different materials. It was a fairly vigorous process which I enjoyed.

    Congratulations on your RedBubble home page feature !!
    your work is beautiful, love your technique, the attention to details is amazing

  • Margaret Stock... replied

    Thanks Starz. This drawing got a HC at a really good show recently.
    The judge said it was detailed, but at the same time, the technique was quite loose. I used a lot of powdered graphite, brushes, and various erasers, vigorous in some areas, softly in others.
