Julsy
Charcoal on Moonstone, 20"x 13", August 2018. Drawn from life.
Julsy was my first front-facing portrait. With this portrait I began using my smudging tool a lot more, in places like the large shadow on her neck. Keeping the eyes approximately the same size and height was a challenge, since before this I had only drawn profiles and did not have to worry about drawing two eyes.
