Hello my fellow blurtients! How are you doing this week. Happy new week.
How was the weekend. Today is monday here. I wish you a terrific new week as I share my post with you. My fellow members of blurt. I am here again to share my recent realistic charcoal pencil portrait of my recent piece I did for my client who decided to surprise his friend.

Here are the steps on how I did the portrait.
I drew my grid lines and made my sketch then started shading it gradually. Sometimes I usually start some of my portraits from the hair, but in his case I started with the eyes, nose, mouth and the hair. Then I got to the face and started working on the features of the face gradually as usual. This is to helps me work downward and from left to right before moving down to the clothing. Though I used a piece of paper to place my hands. I do this to avoid smudging the part I may have already worked on. I really took my time to include everything in detail even though I was not accurate exactly the way it is in the reference. Making sure nothing was left out since I want you to really appreciate a good work. And I know myself. I know I'm always committed to excellence regardless of who it may be.
Don't forget to tell me how it goes. Teejay is getting his work today.
