WRITE WORDS and do PERSONAL SKETCHES.
For your first page in your VAD you will do an exercise in writing, drawing doodling and TEXT.
Write the words PORTRAIT IN WORDS

Create layers of different text or go over the same text - you decide where the pencil will take you.
You can use the same pencil or different colours and sizes.
Take time and have fun, don't be worried if you are doing the correct thing.
