I think my time spent drawing can be measured by how many cups of coffee it takes to complete. This one regesters a 3 on the coffee scale so far.
Today I made everything way darker. Bringing the darkest shades from a 2B to a 6B. And, horror of horrors, my 8B pencil has gone missing. Which sucks! So I tried to substitute charcoal. Nope. Very dark but too soft. It came off as soon as I tried to blend it. So I'll have to make do with layering on the 6B. It's not bad looking.
The kids eyes were the toughest challenge today. At one point too Asian, at another, too Anglo. I think perhaps I made his top lash line too dark...but I'm committed at this point. The face is done. Tomorrow I'll draw his shirt.
