Mixed Media Drawing

I drew a photo of my choosing in charcoal, ink, and graphite. The photo I choose was my dog with a hat on.

Graphite, charcoal, and ink on water color paper.

I started by drawing a value strip with graphite, ink, and charcoal for practice. After that I printed a photo of my choosing in black and white, then I gridded the photo and the paper I will draw on. Then I started at the left top corner adding different shads of black and light, then once I finished the grey tones I when in a used in ink in the darkened parts and to add texture.
