Help with hard edges in drawing?

[Jennifer Geary]

Hi Sharon!

Great ideas you just gave to me! I ordered some of the paper you mentioned and dug out my other pencils, too. I will redo this drawing, most definitely! I think my problem lies in the fact that I am just stuck with using Ebony pencils, since they are so rich and I can get nice lights and dark darks. I do need to break out of my norm and experiment with other techniques. Thank you for sharing some of your ideas. I will take them into consideration when I redo this drawing! I will post it when I finish!

All the best!
Jen
