Charcoal and Pencil Sketch of a Young Blond Woman

This is a sketch of a young lady named Lily. I sketched it in pencil and worked over it with charcoal and a blending stub and finished with a pencil.  Her photograph had her hair all wavy but I took artistic licence and made it simpler so to give more attention to her lovely face.

The photo didn't capture the subtle graduations of grays. I tired several tricks to get it right. My original sketch is more subtle.

I hope you enjoyed seeing my work. Thanks for taking the time to look.
