The little otter has acquired some more graphite on its fur and completion of one eye. The hand on the left side of the composition is beginning to be developed, also. The fur was coming along nicely, but the hand kept grabbing my attention. I worried about the smear factor to the bottom portion of the otter, if I went back to working on the left side of the drawing. So, I broke out from my usual method and decided to keep going on the top portion of the otter's head, while moving from left to right on the bottom part of the composition. The trading off should break up the monotony, and the darks can be adjusted simultaneously in the whole composition at the same time. I have already done a little deepening of shadows in the finished fur. It photographed a little on the washed out side tonight, but you should be able to see where the piece is heading. :)
