It’s been a little while since my
last post but I am back with a LONG overdue portrait of my best bud “Ura.” In
keeping the India Ink portrait trend I’ve began, I decided to do this one in
the same style. It only took 2 hours to complete and I think it’s because I’m
very familiar with this face. I started this one with a sketch in my sketchbook
before moving to the Bristol paper. This is something I’ve done with much of my
art in the past and it helped me see what all I needed to improve on.
Once
satisfied with the sketchbook sketch, I drew the under drawing with an H pencil
which created very soft lines that were easily erased. I then went right into
the inking phase. I’m so very happy to have gotten this portrait done, it’s
been on my to do list for many years. Is there a project you’ve been meaning to
do? Leave a comment below and share your story.
