Line and tonality

Choosing a drawing paper is almost like choosing a lover. You want to allow your line to be as playful as it possibly can be, however it is the paper, who has a feminine nature and naughtily  dictates its conditions. Put more, put more shading- the ink pen insists. While the paper seemingly puts up with everything; afterwards she will make a decision what remains to meet the human eye and what gets dumped in the bin.
