It takes some discipline! I participated in a #30Faces30Day Graphite Portrait Challenge sponsored by the Sktchy App.

Each day in January 2021 a new Face was released. (I do not choose the subjects except for MLK/Amanda/Anne Frank. )

Each of the portraits is drawn with graphite lead. I am using 4B, 2B, and Graphite powder. I make the graphite powder with the dust from sharpening the leads!

I never thought about using graphite powder. But, I am loving it! It works really well for skin tones!

Pencil, as a medium, has been a favorite of mine for a really long time! In high school, I won some sort of district-wide competition with a large-scale pencil drawing of a Native American male. The portrait still hangs in my parent’s living room!!!

Over the years, I got away from pencil as a medium. But, this 30-day challenge has taught me a lot. I think my drawings are improving. Each drawing ends up a bit different based upon the subject. I love all the muses and am thankful for the sktychy app and all the folks that lend their faces for artists like me to draw!

If you are interested in purchasing one or a group of portraits. Let me know!

They look cool in a group!

All drawings are 9x12 inches unframed.

Each portrait is matted (11x14 inches) and ready to ship (or pickup if you are local) to YOUR home from my studio!

PAY WHAT YOU DECIDE SUGGESTED MINIMUM IS $85 EACH.
