Time to revisit an older drawing. I did this Doodled face from a picture of my son (taken 10+ yrs ago) for the Sketchbook Project almost 2 years ago. I was experimenting with watercolor pencils and doodling shapes to contour the face [inspired by Rebecca Anthony]. It was fun and I liked the way this turned out. But that picture is now long gone and since this is one of my favorite pictures…it gets to be color-sketched next.
Started out trying to duplicate the texture of the towel….as you can see, with the very tiny circles.
Then I gave up on the tiny-circle effect and just tried to get those folds right. I know I’ll be working more on that left side, cuz that fold just isn’t that deep. Ugh!
I have to admit…that I really like sketching loved ones (or people I know). Because as I go thru the motions, I start to think about them. I remember things I may want to ask them next time I see them. Or I sit back and feel blessed that they are doing well. Figuring their path out. Happy, Healthy, Productive! What more can a proud mom ask for?
