You could start your drawing on grey paper and use both a black and white media. No matter the paper or medium the concept of layering will help you achieve your desired goal. Look at takintoolong's answer below, he points out different processes and materials but the concept of layering still plays a role. Look at some of the lectures by Vitruvian Fine Art Studios vitruvianstudio.com/video and David Kassan youtube.com/watch?v=s2sSm7EP3Wo to see how a drawing like this is made | |
