Description
Around 10 hours of good old fashioned fun
more of an experiment/exercise in charcoal, but it was very hard work, not to mention challenging to get the little details in. Still was a very enjoyable portrait to make, I love close-ups of the face
Made with hard, medium and soft charcoal pencils on Bristol Board (which I am running out of! HEEEELP!)
Anyway, I hope you like it
-----------
Reference is from the talented photographer ~Cernobyte . I noted her, but I don't think she got the note. If she's reading this and wants this drawing removed, I will remove it
Anyway, go and check out her work, it's beautiful!

You cunning person, you. You flipped it! [link] The cheek freckles are caught really well, and the lips are wonderfully dark.

I must admit, the only real reason (other than I preferred it) that the image is flipped is because it makes it harder for people to find flaws in it
glad you like it

Someone that symmetrical would surely meet the scientific demands of beauty - you're creating something far too logical.

Wonderful work! I love how you handle charcoal and get all the texture. All those subtle details really add to the finished piece.
