My daily practice of drawing faces continues: in over three months, I have skipped two days. While still doing graphite and ink, it’s charcoal that most often yields what I realize I want:
A structurally correct head with a face that expressed the subject’s spirit. This means that besides digging more deeply into the structure and the techniques of charcoal I am being more selective in the models that I choose (mostly from the sktchy app). If I don’t have an emotional response there’s no reason to draw.
This is Kori. Done in charcoal on gray toned paper.
