My obsession with toned paper continues. This time it's one of my charcoal drawings. A shell from the National Museum of Scotland in Edinburgh. A giant conch, looks a bit malformed, but all the more interesting for it.
I used Stonehenge Kraft paper (lovely stuff) with black and white charcoal.

It's available in my shop, if you're into it...
