A single figure, turned away. Line has given way to mass; matt graphite and fine charcoal powder build form through layered pressure. The shoulder-marks (a name, a date) are ink. The contrast of the two tools is part of the page.
Carl Jeppe’s life-drawing group, Arcadia, Pretoria — 12 April 2026. Gravity-feed fountain pen on upright sketchbook, with matt graphite and fine charcoal powder blends on the tonal pages.
