Bad Hair Day

 
Hi
 
 
Recently I have been using both my coloured pencils and my  oil pastels together.
 
But today I used only my pencils.
 
 
 
 
 
In my previous coloured pencil drawings I have used a light sketchy technique
 
 but in this one the face has a number of layers which has resulted in a burnished look.
 
I am not sure if I like this look or not.
 
I'm still experimenting......

  1. I like the layers on the face, there is a lot of feeling in her expression, I wonder what she's thinking :) Popping over from Blue Chair Diary Illustrations

  11. Oh I like this look very much. This is so typical for a bad hair day (I look similar when I have a bad hair day) and makes it really look authentic. It's such a lovely drawing!

  12. nice drawing :)

    the burnished look is usually caused by too much pressure or the paper not having enough tooth for the pencils
