The Fist

Hand drawing continued

found

My try

My paper is a 50 lb. weight.

I have been advised to use 

250 lb. weight paper

which is rougher and holds charcoal better

The charcoal I used is a blunt type of material.

I think I need more of a pencil style

My Drawing Journey, Part One

Repost

Recently I decided to draw everyday at lunch time at work.

I pop in my ear buds, turn up my music and get to drawing.

I want to work from photos eventually I think, that may change.

I will see as I go.

Something parts I drew I felt good about.

When annoyed, I x-it out, or slash through it in disgust.

Most of this is done on my lunch, time flies, I don't want to get back to work.

How good will I get by years end, we will see.

I was kind of nervous doing this in front of people at first.

People do come up to see what I am doing. A few shared that they drew also.

to be continued.

building on face structure

eyes, mouth, lips

flipping through a book

I thought I could draw the drawing

practice, practice

hands must be learned

eyes, hand grasping
