My experimental tools consisted of an array of different vegetables + a lemon :) I wanted to incorporate a bunch of mixed textures and shapes. Obviously, I had no preconceived idea of what I wanted to draw but instead just experimented with different mark-making and explored the possibilities of what the vegetables could do. I used carrots, peppers, cucumber, asparagus, celery, broccoli, cauliflower and of course my lemon.
I did two separate pieces in order to fully explore the mark-making process. This was my first piece:
This is my second piece:
