An example of my negative drawing process where I draw with graphite on Mylar the negative image of the original object. Once the final drawing is complete, that drawing is high-resolution scanned, inverted in Photoshop, and then printed as a positive image. The collector gets both the original negative drawing as well as the inverted positive print. The negative drawing process allows me to create much more dynamic and dimensional works than my traditional drawing method. This original drawing measured 54" x 58"
