Description thought i would try a double leap from digital painting to traditional pencil drawing - should have thought about that one a bit more. this was really difficult!! made with my awesome childhood coloured pencils on a pad of sketch paper. Desaturation was very challenging.

oh well, first serious sketch in a while, and first ever pencil coloured piece, so i'll expect me to be pretty rusty/nubby (no pun intended) for a while. anyway, looks nothing like reference .

not made in mypaint, for once! but variously colour corrected and cropped in gimp.

note to self: never scan. always take photo.

Wow, that's beautiful. I've also been doing a bit of traditional art lately, I really should get around to uploading that stuff someday...

A very good photo of your drawing. Maybe take more care with focus. Your drawing captures the watcher (it captured me). Thank you for your art!

This is really neat! I like the way the hair looks. You say this is a leap for you? You seem to be quite adept at traditional pencil drawing! Well done.
