Face 5/100



I haven't been able to do much of my drawing lately with all the art projects but I did manage to get this guy done AND read my book for an hour too!

Faces 4/100


Ugh. I posted the pictures in reverse order. But it took so long to load them, I think we're just gonna go with it. Oh wait! I fixed it. We're good.

Faces 3/100


Here he is. The finished project. In the darkest spots I used charcoal but everything else was done with my handy-dandy mechanical pencil. He smells nice too! (I had to spray him with hair spray so the charcoal wouldn't all rub off)

Faces 2.5/100


I love this man. I don't know who he is, but I love him. Most of all I love his face. This is the face that changed my opinion about wrinkles. I love them! I can't wait to get them! They give a face character and it's so much more fun to draw a face full of wrinkles and laugh lines than a smooth super model. If you draw one of each and set them next to each other, which one do you think that people are going to love? The most beautiful one, of course! The one full of wrinkles!

He's a WIP, I really need to get back to work on him. Actually, I think I'll go do that right about...now.

Faces 2/100

Everybody, meet The Walrus Man. Every time I look at this picture I shake my head, not because I did such a bad job but because this is really what the man looked like. Like a walrus.

Pet Drawing #33

I've been pretty busy for the past few week. One week, I was working on a commission piece for my work and then the next week, I prepared a sermon for my church last Sunday. The sermon included an object lesson where I printed out a linocut design. Fun!

I'm still going to be rather busy. On top of looking for extra work, I have decided to work on updating my illustration portfolio. So I probably won't put out as many pet drawings as when I first started. But that's really not the point. I look forward to my pet drawings as creating art for my own personal enjoyment.

My cat Mr. Frodo was drawn from memory with a 0.9mm mechanical pencil. This drawing is a study for my portfolio.
