These are some sketches out of my sketch book, my scanner was playing up so i had to take photographs, these are just some sketches from around St Kilder road and melbourne central. 
This is a replica of a  pencil drawing which i was unhappy with of Vernon Ah Kee the aboriginal artist grandfather who in his original work used black and white charcoal. I used graphite pencil and white compressed charcoal which did not go to well, this is why i did another drawing on colored paper to use the white charcoal to its full potencial. The drawing below is my final copy. This was an assignment for school. 

Vernon Ah Kee experimental drawing for school



Sorry about the bad quality photograph but the drawing was to big to fit on the scanner.
