From the Sketchbook

Snow White concept. Trying to get better with drawing the ladies. In hind sight i should have made her performing an action to figure out her personality than just looking like a porcelain doll. oh, well.

Medium: Blue Pencil / Winsor Newton Series 7 #2 brush

Just bought a Pentel pocket brush and I love it. I have to get used to the weight since it's heavier than my Winsor Newton brush. I also enjoy the thickness of the Pentel when gripping it (big hands), and not having to stop and get more ink. Sometimes I get into a groove when inking and having to stop for fill up the brush can ruin my flow.

As, for the sketch I decided to draw a old guy. I love elderly males because I can throw as many hatch marks as I want and it will look fine. As opposed to females where its the 'less is more' scenario.

Medium: Blue Pencil / Pentel Pocket Brush (yay!)

This is my inspired sketch from "A Wizard of Earthsea" by Ursula K. Le Guin. It's Ged or Sparrowhawk at a young age just learning how to summon little critters.
