I'm trying to ensure that my sketchbook work is exploratory of drawing, and that I'm not just documenting things then totally moving on. Obviously I'll be selecting certain objects I've been drawing to revisit them later for further development. But I started sketching some shame masks and trying to capture some kind of texture and form using line. I tried to add some contour lines on some of them, for example the hog-like mask. But I was way too rough and sketchy, and didn't really consider it very much because it ended up giving the mask a completely wrong texture. It looks like a wicker basket .. So I'm going to have to consider this far more and experiment with different mark making to try to achieve the texture I want whilst getting the old woodcut aesthetic I'm after.
