Some new work, colored pencil and wax oil pastel on Lanaquarelle 300lb. (640 g/sm) cotton cold-pressed watercolor paper…

Thank you chief!
I have a few photos that could help illustrate the process. These poor iphone pics weren't taken with a "step-by-step" sequence in mind (more just as a reference photo to keep me thinking while I'm at work), and I don't have photos of each stage, but hopefully these might give an idea of the evolution that the paper has gone through. It's much like a pair of jeans hopefully, in that the paper reflects the life it has lived…Thanks for looking!

So I would love some impressions, any impressions, bad, good, it all helps….I'm trying out some new possibilities.
This is going to be a new type of series for me -- as opposed to the artwork in the above post ^^^ which is more like a smorgasbord of colored pencil -- this series will be more focused and minimal.
Still in progress but close...

Another one just finished…"Aftermath", colored pencil on Rives BFK (280 g/sm french mouldmade cotton paper normally suited for printmaking)

And started a new one too. All colored pencil on Arches 400 lb. Cold Pressed Watercolor Paper. This is the 25oz. denim of the paper world!

Thank you @adam313
That is such a wonderful and unique process. I love it. Thank you so much for sharing and giving us a glimpse into your process.
I think I know of a tool that you might find useful. I recently got myself a pair of these and they seem to have unlimited applications for people who use circles in their work. http://windfiredesigns.com/Tools/CircleTool/index.html

Aren'y they?! They're really well designed and well made. Such unique tools and I can't think of another like them anywhere. Great people to deal with as well.
For some perspective:
The small one is about 7" at it's widest point. The large one is about 19" at it's widest point.
