Select
the design and trace it on the hand made paper. Now using the charcoal
pencil draw the `outline of the traced picture to make it prominent. Spread the
charcoal powder on the design and rub it all over the design using paper stumps
or newspaper bits. The charcoal powder gives a very dark appearance to the design.
Now decide on the darker and lighter portions of the design. On the darker
portions rub
some more charcoal powder and also darken the outlines once more with the
charcoal pencil. On the lighter portions of the design, use the eraser and erase slowly to one direction until you get the desired effect. the natural texture
of the hand made paper complements the light and dark shading of the design.
Drawings
of striped animals like tigers, Zebras etc will look good in this art.
