Baby Chick - Water Soluble Graphite

This started out to be a gesture sketch of a baby chick.  You might say I got a bit carried away and it ended up more like a full blown sketch.

A Derwent Dark Wash water soluble pencil was used (8B) in The Handbook sketchbook.  I sketched with the side of the lead rather than the point for most of it and then the point for final detail.  A waterbrush was used for shading.
