How to change a lightbulb Print

This composition is another detail of the Venice Motel sign in St. Petersburg Florida. Fortunately the sign remains, but it's really distressed and since it's been painted over many times, I wanted to capture that peeling paint patina of it. I liked the way the light came through to hit each lightbulb just enough to make the dancing spots show up. I used conté since I like how it handles more in line with charcoal so i can use them together. This is a tonal paper, so some of the color underneath mixes with the conté over it.
