Description
Something I've been wanting to do for a while but always need to find some confidence for: Draw a portrait for someone. In this case the son of a lady/girl/woman -whatever on my team. It's a bloody gorgeous boy being half Italien half Dutch I'm sure he is on his way to conquer the world. Hope she likes it!'t Was definitely a challenge drawing a portrait in colour pencils on coloured paper. There has to be a first for everything though and a nice way to develop this monochrome way of drawing I like so much!!
-coloured pencils: orange/brown, dark brown and white on conte paper.

Meike, this is beautiful! You did a great job with the subtle hints of light that make his skin look so soft and new.

Amazing work, there is such joyfulness in his expression and I love the way you portrayed his youthful shining eyes.
