Large Scale Black and White Drawing

Both Roger and my studio-mate Rose Sargent challenged me to make a much larger version of the drawings I showed in the last post. The idea scared the shit out of me because so much can change with scale, but once I started it went really easy and I really enjoy the current state of the drawing. I started it on a large piece of panel which already had someone else's big colorful painting on it. I painted over this, first with watered down black acrylic, and then filled in with white gesso, toning it to different grays in places.
