"What if ..."

As I began to draw my Apple - (Photo A) in Charcoal, Conte and Graphite to warm up I noticed that I after drawing in a classical way I began to ask myself how "I", me, Lynn would interpret the image and use my own stroke.  What if I let my hand feel the "Apple".  What if I let my eye roam around the object.  Studying the contour, tone, color and hue,... etc...  Here is what I came up with:

The images on the left are classical applications.  To the right I asked - What if. 

 

 

N.B.:  as a consequence of this first study, my first final piece for Apple A is a composition of Ink and montage:
