Over the weekend I had the opportunity to delve into portrait drawing (and will be sharing more photos soon). However, I took a moment (okay, several hours) to play around and do a little extra. I decided to draw my older sister, Maggie. For the first time I tried out actual artist's drawing pencils. I usually end up drawing every picture with my loyal friend, the mechanical Paper-mate pencil. I definitely saw the benefit of higher grade tools.
Now I need to practice a bunch more and understand how to utilize their benefits on a much higher level.

Pencil on Paper
This paper is actually beige pastel paper, but due to poor lighting, the color has faded.
