MEDIA 

Graphite:  The graphite pencil in its manufactured form, is a versatile drawing media. 9B is the softest while 9H is the hardest.  Graphite lends itself to contour drawings and building linear notations, and tonality through directional hatchings and cross-hatchings.  With soft pencils, it is possible to use various techniques: direct application, smudging (stumping) and dissolving graphite into a wash with solvent.  Other variations are graphite sticks, and powdered carbon.

WAX RESIST

Wax Resist:  Students use a selection of crayons to establish their compositions.  Areas of the drawing can be divided to emphasis experimental use of the media which can include ink and watercolor wash and layering of the wax crayons.
