Tonal Columns
I really enjoyed doing these tonal columns.  I got so carried away that I forgot to put rubber gloves on before working with waterproof ink, so went around with black fingers and nails for a day or two afterwards!

2.1.1 Tonal Columns 
 
Column 1 was black ink dabbed on with a crumpled tissue. Column 2 was pieces of newspaper glued on. Column 3 was lines drawn with a felt pen and brushed with water afterwards. Column 4 was printed with the edge of a piece of card with black ink. Column 5 was black ink dabbed on with a cotton bud. Column 6 was dots drawn on with a felt pen. Column 7 was very diluted ink dabbed on with a soft paintbrush, getting more concentrated as I went down. Column 8 was charcoal.  
  
 I then tried some of the special effect brushes on Photoshop to make shaded columns on the computer.
