Taking a ''closer look'' was drawn on buff paper using coloured pencils.
I was forced to simplify what I saw in my previous drawing (tonal drawing) even more than I did when I did that drawing. I seem to want to put every detail in which is not always necessary. The more I look at other artist's work the more I see that a simplistic method of drawing is just as effective as trying to draw every detail. This exercise has been instrumental in forcing me to simplify my drawing methods. When I completed the drawing I really enjoyed using the pencils to build up different layers of the colour in different areas.
