tiny vessel - a drawing

Tiny Vessel Drawn; graphite on paper; 8.5" x 5"

After exploring pinwheels and kleenex ghosts in a tiny format in watercolor, it's time to move to vessels. 

Also, after 35 years of using 2mm 6B Sanford Turquoise lead in a Staedtler holder (along with a Ticonderoga 2B pencil (mostly for its eraser)) I've switched to Blackwing.  It's absolutely delicious in its delivery of graphite - heightened with the 2-step sharpener Blackwing makes.  I no longer have to switch back and forth between two pencils.  Blackwing does it all.  I'm hooked.
