sketcharoo


in keeping up with my resurrected enthusiasm for drawing, i've been drawing for two nights straight. right after i got back from hospital duty last sunday night, i set down to work.


i actually finished her whole face and her hair but i didn't quite like the result. i'm still having trouble with drawing face shapes. she turned out pretty chubby. :(

today, i went on a pencil shopping spree again. decided to try out charcoal pencils for the first time. after my brother's birthday dinner (which was omfg gastronimically satisfying), i set down to work with my brand new charcoals.


the result was a very, VERY messy drawing. charcoal powder was all over the sheet and whenever i tried to blend them in, it just doesn't come out right. it's hard to work with charcoal. plus i can't use charcoal on areas i've shaded with pencil already. although i love its dark shade. but it's my first time anyway. looking forward to more charcoal sketches. and i probably need to watch youtube videos on charcoal tutorials. LOL.

delicious ambiguity.
