The March challenge of 'Goed Gezien - Goed Bekeken' is 'In our family...' the theme of the Books Week that is happening each month of March in The Netherlands.
In our family we like to go for a nice walk, preferably a forest walk.
For my contribution I have made a collage of walking maps, the legenda of these maps, some titles of the walks, a bit of a description and of course the icon for a restaurant (coffee cup) from old magazines on tinted cardboard and sprayed that with fixative for Conté Crayons.
On that layer I started drawing a forest path with the Conté Sketching Crayons, but I had to use more layers of fixative before the crayons really did 'hold' on the magazine paper. For this I was prepared, I did read about it somewhere in the past.
After some layers I found that there was a difference in paper quality that could not be covered up with fixative so I let that be part of the experiment's results.
The information about the materials I have used, the size of this work and its availability can all be found in my Tumblr blog.
