Drawing tips?

[slavemason]

More times than not, I just don't know what to draw. I like a little bit of abstract element tied to traditional techniques. I stumbled onto a neat trick one night working the graveyard shift to get the ball rolling. Take a piece of aluminum foil about 8 1/2" x 11" and wrinkle it up real good. Then take the foil and straighten it back out but leave the wrinkles. Next, make a xerox copy of it. The copy is full of unusual patterns and potential "images". It's like industrial clouds on paper. I don't eat acid (anymore).
