I am proud to say I was finally brave enough to start marking my paper! Now that I have a nice clean outline of my figure, I am so excited to continue working on replicating Rosa's mark. So far, I have worked with a couple different marks, more straight, linear lines as are seen on the draping of the fabric to the left, short, hatching lines to create different values in the legs, and finally, simple black outlines. I am doing my best to try and create a similar look to that of Rosa, even if every single line isn't exactly perfect! I'm actually really happy with how it has come out so far, it was TERRIFYING putting my first mark on the paper but I'm so glad I did! I still have a lot of work to do, but now that I'm getting the hang of this I think it will really start coming along!
