#30Faces30Days Sktchy App Challenge

“The Scrunch.” OMG! This sketching challenge was to make the sketch with a ballpoint pen using crosshatching for the values (in layman terms- the shading.) Holy moly, this sketch took forever!!! I almost quit a few times!! I am happy with the results considering how painful the process! 

I am so thankful for all the inspiring muses that lend their images to artists like myself for this 2020 Sktchy #30Faces30Days Challenge.

All the portraits are soulful. Many are contemplative, some are humorous. Each one digs deep into the soul of the muse who inspired the portrait.

It has been lots of work to make a portrait each day. I miss a day here and there and just try to catch as I go! But, this challenge has been so fun. Each day I look forward to the next muse and making their portrait!

I hope you enjoy all these beautiful faces. I have so much fun making these drawings in charcoal, ink, & watercolors. My goal is to eventually put poetry/quotes to most of them!

All the original drawings are matted, framed and ready to hang in your home or office!

Drawing is 9x12 inches on Canson XL Mixed Media. The framed size is 11x14 inches.

As always, I had to make it. I had to share it. Please enjoy it as much as I enjoy creating it. Let me know your thoughts!

I take every step to ensure this online image is as accurate as possible to the original drawing. However, variations in color may occur due to monitor differences.
