20 minute sketch |
I rarely work in just one medium and even more rarely do I work without colour but today forced myself to do a quick 20 minute sketch in just PENCIL!!! I know.. a shock to my system, i had to try very hard not to add a little colour wash :) Working with a time deadline means you have no time to rub out lines you don't like or fuss over detail and as I was short of time today suited my purpose.
Linking to 29 faces
A very striking piece!
ReplyDeleteShe's lovely, even without the colour! Lots of nice details and good lines :)
ReplyDeleteA dreamy, reflective look on the face of your dear lady. Your pencil work is marvellous, and it has not suffered at all for being created so quickly. In face it has a beautiful looseness. I would love to see more of your sketches in pencil and perhaps charcoal.
ReplyDeleteOMG, you did this in 20 minutes. You are so talented.
ReplyDeleteThis is very artistic, expressive and fine drawing. I like the playing of lines and his look. It is so interesting. She is looking inside.
ReplyDeleteso lovely, morag...
ReplyDeletexoxo
It looks great - more than great... I think, it is your daughter again... ?? I understand how difficult it was not to use any colors, but: This one need no colours it speaks without it...
ReplyDeleteVery nice sketch. Sometimes paring back and keep it simple can surprise and delight!
ReplyDeleteAmazing!!! I love her and I can't even imagine what a 20 min face I did would look like...or how frazzled I would look after trying :)
