Today while in the studio, I found a random leftover piece of dry clay and decided to give it a knew purpose by drawing with it, rather than letting it go to waste. It wasnt the best to work with and getting darker tones is very difficult but I discovered that I found interesting
On the previous page, I had an oil pastel drawing, and some spare sheets in between the two pages to stop it from smudging. the pressure from the clay transferred the outline into those sheets. I decided to experiment with this.
I used some black paper i had, because i wanted to also see if the clay turns up better on dark paper rather than light paper, which it does, and covered one side with thick oil pastel. I then drew the scissors again to imprint it onto the page.
I am shocked at the versatility of a simple piece of discarded dry clay. While the sketches are simple, theres a variety of different ways to use clay other than sculpting with it. I enjoyed exploring the possibilities of this material and I think its beneficial to try find a use for something unusual.

i have promised myself that if i use my current, perfectly lovely oil pastels with discipline and consistency then i'm allowed to shill out for the Fancy Ones which i have coveted since bloody 2016 when i discovered they existed. unfortunately! i have made myself unwilling to use my normal pastels due to knowing whatever i do could be *better* in 5 weeks time but whatever i do in 5 weeks time won't be nearly as good if i don't start using the normal pastels right now. anyway. sisyphus and his boulder are looking chipper as anything on the other hill over there.
