Charcoal and Pencil Portrait of Young Woman

Charcoal and Pencil Portrait

I drew this during the odd moments during the last week or so. It was inspired by a face in a travel magazine but I made a few changes . I liked how the light was hitting the face form the lower right and cast interesting shadows and interesting highlights. I liked too how pale her eyes were and was challenged to draw them without making them too dark but not creepy like some have done.

It was drawn in charcoal and pencil. I used a common sketchbook. I used a lot of work with the blending stub.
