Description This one I'm really proud of. Again, looks nicer IRL seeing as I had to saturate it a bunch due to my horrible scanner and the background was murdered in a gray blur so I had to slap a white gradient on real quick or else cut the picture too small.

So, I drew a girl in my chorus class during study hall for a weekly sketchbook assignment. I wanted to challenge myself, and only used three colored pencils - Yellowed-Orange, Mulberry, and Ultramarine. That's it. I'm happy with what turned out, except for how lazy I got with the hair. ;;

On a random note, to keep extending this note (hurrrr), I had such a hard time drawing her. DX She didn't understand that for me to draw her she had to STAY STILL. And this position was the one she was in long enough for me to get it down. Though she kept pulling her hair behind her hair and then is would fall and urrrrggggg...

Hope you all like my traditional art too~

The hair looks so realistic in an unrealistic way! I love the use of many colors in things, and this is one of my favorite uses of it!
Great job!

The face is so lovely~
it's a nice mixture of those three, and they're not overpowering each other either.
