Experimentation mixed media (masking tape & charcoal)

I did these experiments before and so I liked the idea of making them and mixing them and using them into my primary sources because it's something different to what I already do because its not really drawing the image because of the masking tape. I found it weird at first because I haven't done it in a while, but I got the hang of it by the first piece. It mixes well for me because its like a puzzle, once you've placed down the masking tape, it like you have to fill in the other details.

This was taken on the first day in Barcelona and drew it with this mixed media because I thought it suited well because  on the road it had some bright concrete and some dark, so by using the masking tape as the brighter areas left me to use the charcoal as the darker areas 
This photo was taken on the last day of the trip in the airport. I used the masking tape as the people and some of the lights because the people were in a line and the lights were in a line and so by getting the idea of using that I'd make them the same material and the rest as the charcoal, it's simplified down because I made the people in the line all connected to each other because they were that close and the lights had an outer glow to them so I made them a bit bigger.
I drew this because I used the masking tape to make the body structure and in the background there were buildings and trees that were black because the sun was setting 
I used this photo as one of the mixed media experiments because there was these garages with graffiti on it, one of them had a 'C S' and I couldn't really figure out the other graffiti because it was too detailed and it was too far.
