Playing around.

I decided to do something about working into seversl pages in my sketchbook as there is no task until tomorrow.
I waxed,scratched and washed existing pages and played with the "prints"on the facing pages.




































I scratched back into areas of this one and washed over .I still prefer the imprint opposite though it is  better than before.







This is another attempt at scraffitto which I worked into adding wax,chalk wash etc.The wet impression is reminiscent of the airy flowers.












Same as above.The paper was so damp that imprints from the previous page are showing at the top and have created a lovely effect when I closed the wet page.
