May – a return to pen and wash

For the last couple of weeks I have been experimenting with some larger works in pen and wash. I have been trying to draw as loosely and quickly as possible then applying sweeping washes which I shade, quickly, wet on wet. I am trying to achieve impact in my work without defining too accurately.

Two works below let me know what you think!
