Portrait Drawing

graphite (F, 3B), 9-2-10

This past week was the LAST first week of school for me (hopefully)! I am now a senior (I still find it hard to believe my teachers passed me those previous years) at CCAD (Columbus College of Art and Design). Crazy, right?

Anyhoo, this little guy is the first portrait I've done in my Portrait class I'm taking this semester. I feel as if I should have taken that class last year, but my schedule was crazy as it was. Better late then never I guess. ^_^

I set myself up to do a profile view of the model, I feel that's my strength when it comes to the human head. I had fun drawing him, though the beard was different, I've never tried to draw a white beard before. The ear is messed up, the angles aren't quite right. But I LOVE his nose and eyes. ^_^ I wish I had time to finish it off, but I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.

Alright then, bye bye!
