Description This was a dance class distraction My little girl goes to her dance class for 2 hours once a week and I stay with her 'cos she's too little to leave her on her own yet. So this was what kept me entertained for a couple of hours. I did need a couple more to finish her off when I got home though.

Can you tell this is Mena Suvari? I don't know, blue biro pen is pretty unforgiving and you have to just go with it when you start. I've been wanting to try drawing with biro for ages, I need more practice for sure, but it's better than I had thought it would be

Materials this time:
Paper
Biro
Time: 4 hours (ish)

Thank you for taking a look

It's a bit tricky to see the details on here so I popped on a detailed section

Very different, but cool! Drawing with pen is so hard, I rarely try it because like you say, if you make a mistake that's it. *lol* But this looks awesome. I don't know the lady so I can't vouch for likeness, but she's really pretty!

Amazing pen work. I find pen to be the most difficult medium to work in, so I am in awe.

Just discovered your work. Considering your medium this is superb. I like your comment that biro can be unforgiving. It take courage to draw knowing there's no going back other than colouring it over. Again this is impressive.

Lol, I'm so not the best person to tell how to do hair, I'm getting better though! It's actually easier to do it in ink which is very odd

The accuracy of the look, the movement of the hair, I love this.
Make me think of theatre VS movie : only one shot, kind of emphasized style.
You were on stage this time, and the result is ... other plays should go

The longer I stare at it, the more I recognize Mena. It might not look as her at the first sight, but, after a few seconds it's obvious The eyes and the hair stand out!
