smudging and shading


Using simple value changes to indicate shape, using HB pencil and lots of rubbing with a stump, makes a drawn face more realistic.

I slow-draw an imagined face to practice the basics of head structure. But I miss the drama and impact of less realistic methods.

Drawing this reminds me of where my first love is. In color and bold line!
