Christine's coming along
Well, I think my awful dry spell is over. I am happy with the progress so far. This is graphite and white pastel on Stonehenge toned paper. I think I am discovering this is the best paper for me to work on. I like being able to use the toned paper as the neutral, and especially like using the white pastel for highlights.
I'm concerned about the rest of the hair, and we'll see how far I take the satin fabric.
Any critiques would be helpful. Chris and Kris (my son) saw it last night and they are real pleased with it, so I am happy that her likeness is good. Just as long as I don't ruin what I have done so far, I have been doing this a lot lately (very disheartening to say the least).
The "line" down her cheek on our right will be the shadow of a strand of hair. And I stopped just as I was beginning to form the neck, so the shadow under her jaw is not where I want it to be.
