Description

I so loved doing this portrait .. for many reasons!!

First time I have used Arches Hot Pressed 140 paper
Once you get used to how it accepts the graphite it truly is the best paper for detail work.

Mech Pencils - 2H ~ HB ~ 4B
Trad Pencils - 6B - 4H

Total Hours - 16 hours

I hope you all like ...

Well it's my first critique, so I'm not very expierienced, but here's my opinon about this artwork.

VISION

Well.. Firstly, when i look at this drawing, I don't clearly get what is the point. But after thinking a while, I can see more. I like the way you expressed her emotions. Also the pose is great.

ORIGINALITY

I think it's quite oroginal. It isn't just a portrait, but you wanted to say something about this particular person. I like it. Also the pose and kinda minimalistic background are great.

TECHNIQUE

Well... I'm not good at drawing, so your skills are very good for me. She looks natural. But I think there could be just a bit more contrast. Shading is magnificent.

IMPACT

This drawing really made me think a bit. I love the expression. Good job!
