the original and number 12 on the left. the reason i mention number 12 will be evident when you look at the triplicate, black and white version of this drawing

this is the first time i use my new blue carbon paper. i’m so in love with the color, very pleasantly happy!

and here we see the traces of number 12 coming through. i should keep my accidental effects just that: accidental. i’m always thinking that i’ve discovered a new technique and that i can take advantage of this serendipitous event. but once i gain control, the exercise becomes futile. it must remain unlooked-for

I sort of let myself run away with the whole triplicate thing this time. I was going back and forth, with carbon paper, without, trying every combination I could. I can’t help feeling that I went a little over the top. Soon the copies felt more original than the original and really screwed up my thinking. And I think that’s reflected in the next two pictures!
