"little ben"
 |
well ive looked at this drawing upside down,sideways,in the mirror...and i guess im ready to post it,..i started doing some new stuff like brushing with charcoal dust with tiny brushes,....this is part pencil with blending with tissue...part graphite dust.....but no charcoal dust.....i think everyone should try it at least once just to see what ya think,
sometimes i get a little carried away with the kneaded eraser,i started dragging out stuff in his shirt that i shouldnt have,but its fun to play with.,
,sort of like picking a scab..i couldnt stop myself.
the only place i used charcoal was in his eyes..the hair is 8b,but i cant really tell any difference in the scan..but in the drawing it stands out a little better.
from knowing what me and my 4 brothers looked like in other pictures as kids i think my drawing looks a lot like all of us,but not exactly like any of us,..including ben,..but i still had fun drawing it.
btw..this is crayola watercolor paper,..with a very smooth surface....so i might have to take back all the bad things i said about bristol smooth,...it might work even better for brushing.
