A.M. Foster Covered Bridge, Walden, VT

9x12 graphite/pencil on Strathmore Bristol

This will be my entry in the Graphite/Pencil competition at the Champlain Valley Fair in September. Roughed in the darker areas with a cotton ball dipped in graphite.  A lot of the work was done with stubs, qtips, cotton ball and soft eraser. Probably less than 5% of the marks were applied with a pencil.

This is entered in the Champlain Valley Fair art competition in the Graphite/Pencil category.
