Description My mom

Complementing my dad's portrait These two portraits are a Christmas gift.

I really enjoyed this one. It turned out better than the other one. I've spend two weeks on this, dunno how many hours... everytime I walked by I put down a few strokes.

Bought my first art supplies for this! Yeah!

Material:
A3 sketch paper, 8B graphite pencil, charcoal and a bit conte for a few strands of hair

Cheers and merry christmas everyone!

EDIT: My mom and dad were really happy with their portraits. My mother even thought it was an edited photo... That was a nice complement . This is how they turned in a frame and with a classy matte

So expressive and upbeat. I love the form and tones. The face is beautifully rendered. Realistic and wonderful drawing.
