Face #8

8X10" colored pencil

This face almost didn't make it into the collection. I started out drawing a face that had been photographed from a very low angle, making it difficult to draw accurately. The beginning of the drawing had a very cartoonish feel to it, so I decided to leave it alone for awhile. When I came back to it, I decided to put some color down and embellish what was there. The result was a caricature-like figure that very loosely resembles the reference photo from which I was working.
