I tried to draw a woman in a negative form/technique. In this case the execution is not according to the object being drawn but according to the background (i.e., the space or emptiness). The idea is that the background is built or filled with white chalk, and thus, after the background is filled, the figure is revealed. This technique requires concentration and the ability to see ahead in order to know exactly how and where to make the chalk strokes. You can see that I succeeded at a level of 95% and I had to use my finger to hide/dim/fade-out/vanish some minor areas.
