ERASER'S
Erasing is not only used for getting rid of unwanted marks on your paper. It is also a valuable tool for creating textural effects.you can use three kinds of erasers.
- Eraser pen-this can be used to make thin, white lines in areas that have already been covered with graphite,charcoal or carbon. its like drawing with white.this type of eraser erases more completely than a kneaded eraser.and doesn't leave as much eraser residue as a typewriter eraser.
- Typewriter eraser-this kind of eraser can be sharpened like a pencil. it is quite abrasive and capable of digging back down to the white of the paper through dark values.this also means it can damage your paper if you don''t be careful.if you need a sharp edge use razor blade to cut off the end of the eraser.
- Kneaded eraser-This is a soft, pliable eraser that can be molded into any shape you need. Dabbing with a kneaded eraser leave no eraser residue.
- Lifts charcoal or graphite in shadow areas to indicate reflected light.
- Removes smudges in highlights for the final cleanup for a drawing.
- Creates unique textures by rolling or stroking in blended charcole.
