Cathy's hand is taking shape, but it's rough. - Burrito Bouquet 6
I did very little re-inking on the burritos. Most of the definition was created by short scratches following the contours of the tortillas. - Burrito Bouquet - Reference Photo
Harold Farley's original photo. Thank you, Harold! - Burrito Bouquet 8
Stippling over the linear scratches on Cathy's hand to soften the look. Splotchy, but it does the job of breaking up the lines. Scratching the stippling will soften the splotches. - Burrito Bouquet - Greyscale Photo
The reference photo rotated, cropped and converted to greyscale. I tweaked the contrast a LOT! I also printed the same version in color, and a less contrast-y version so I could decipher some of what I was going on in the photo (burrito vs wrapper vs plate). - Burrito Bouquet - Final
