La Mejor Mano

This is an experimental 12x12 charcoal drawing. Experimental in the sense that the canvas was created by adding multiple layers of tissue paper with glue. That added texture to the drawing as well as made it very hard to work on. All the bumps and imperfections of the canvas made it hard to blend and get the best gradient possible. I finished with an oil pastel heart beat in the background to add another layer of though as well as make it more dynamic.
