Skylar charcoal study




This is a 36 x 24 inch drawing to prepare for an oil painting of the same size. It is done with vine charcoal on newsprint; nothing fancy.

I'm trying to get my values and drawing right before going on to add color. I'm posting three times - the same drawing with modifications and then the reference photo. Please excuse quality of photo - it's second generation from a slide (what I wouldn't give for a digital camera! But not practical at the moment).

The top of the drawing was accidentally cut off on drawing no. 1.

Note the differences in the background and the lips - parents said after seeing the first drawing that the lips should have more of a cupid's bow in them.
