Description I went through a bunch of old magazine clippings again and came across a beautiful black & white photo, so I decided to draw this in colour and convey a warmth to the skin tones. This turned out to be more tricky than I first realised.

Drawn on brown A3 Daler-Rowney Pastel paper entirely using Schwan Stabilo Carb Othello pastel pencils.
