29 Faces - #2 & #3

Squeezing some time in, post Superbowl and pre Downton Abbey.  I did this drawing based on a picture of an actual art doll that I was intrigued by, I thought her face was so interesting.

I then re-drew her in my fabric art book, which I just got bound yesterday. I used paint, inks, graphite and charcoal. Her face turned out very differently, but I'm okay with it.  I'm going to rework areas, everything below her collar was done very quickly, but at a pace of a face a day, I figure that will have to be later!

  2. I like your drawing very much! (i like the fine lines of pencils and the charcoal) But the painting on fabric turned out beautifully, it looks ancient somehow. Love to see more faces of yours :-)
