Portrait in Pencil
Hello Friends!
I began working on this a couple of nights ago and finished it last night. I drew it from a photo.
I found out about an online portrait drawing class that is 50 weeks long and starts in January. It was offered at an insanely reasonable price so I signed up for it! Learning to draw and paint portraits is something I have been wanting to do for years. Hopefully, it will be challenging and fun! I have tried to learn from books, but have never been very successful. And lately, I have just been eyeballing photos. I know tracing them isn’t “cheating,” but I just don’t like doing it as much anymore.
I hope everyone is having a blessed holiday season. Ours has been pretty relaxing this year. And my shoulder is healing well.
Have a wonderful day and give someone you love a big hug! 😀
