Posted on

I have been away for a while and didn’t get a chance to carry on with this one. I’m back though, rested and ready to start working. I worked on the hair today, which is very tedious. I prefer to draw in all the detail rather than rub back afterwards so it takes a little longer….

Just finished this one today. I was working on this portrait for the last few days. The work is based on the photograph from www.scx.hu by BWK. I loved the photo of this girl, she looks so present in the moment. And so I had to call the drawing ‘Moment’. I think it’s very appropriate….
