This third book in the popular Do More Art series exposes how the
simplest of writing tools is in fact the key to an entire universe of
artistic expression. From simple doodling and mark-making to
meticulously built-up tour de forces - a piece of graphite is all that
is needed to create whole new worlds. Selwyn Leamy and Eve Blackwood
explore the many different ways the pencil can be used: from hatching
and smudging to frottage and even collage. Each technique is clearly
explained and illustrated with works by some of the greatest
contemporary pencil practitioners - demonstrating once and for all that
the pencil really is mightier than the pen.
