Work in Progress Pencil Drawing by Charlotte Yealey



Work in progress
This is a graphite drawing of my daughter and I that I am working on. I am using a photo booth photo from around 1990 which really washes out the values in the faces. The drawing is actually darker than this scan looks. I know that I have to darken the values in the faces but I am still working on it.

This is beautiful! I need to do more drawing. I never do enough of it. This is very, very nice.

The family resemblence can already be seen. I look forward to seeing the finished piece.
