Pastel Portrait of Kristen


Since I missed last Friday's model session I had Tim take a few photos of our model. It took quite a while for the initial drawing since I start with a nice charcoal drawing and like to see all the details at this stage, and then take away the shading before starting with pastel. The likeness was good but not quite right. I kept at it for quite a while, over a few days, fixed the chin, added more hair, and worked on the jaw and it came out great.
