i accidently used the wrong shortcut for this and ended up inverting the image which turned out so damn cool! i’m excited about it anyway. so i decided to invert the duplicate and triplicate and share them here

#14 original. i find more and more that it’s about the copy and not the original. i get these great little surprises on the next page and that sets my heart aflutter

#14 duplicate. i had used a brand new piece of carbon paper here. the only ‘unknown’ was how the pencil and pen would transfer to the next page. on the next one, however, i used the same carbon paper to duplicate the original

i didn’t go about in my usual method here with the carbon paper. i sort of went back and forth across four spreads, but only two look substantial enough to post here

i love drawing without thinking. and it’s so easy to do with carbon paper and a set of colored pencils

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

on the original i started with a multicolored pencil and went over it with a red pen for sharper lines

the duplicate always is a surprise. but this time it actually made my heart stop for a second. i’m very excited about where i can go with this

Cross the bridge for some Instagram shots. (more…)

It was really interested to see how the color pencils would transfer onto the following pages. My favorite is the duplicate, with which I used black folded carbon paper.
