Sketches Charlotte used for an illustration assignment.

A little girl, with my grandfather, Arthur Sternberg.

A roadside sketch that might turn up as a painting later.

Many of these drawings were done with Wolff pencil on newsprint. It was a very soft, very black carbon pencil, less smeary than charcoal pencil. She also had a clay-coated paper she liked, back in the 40’s.
