DRAWING HAND BY PENCIL (HB)

I have drawn hand at the stage of closing. This drawing shows left hand fingers folding down followed in spiral formation in order first little finger and last to close is thumb. Take a look at my sketch below.

Than shading, making up some wrinkles and lines as well. 

Drawing Water By Pencil

 ... It's not as complicated as it seems. Water is constantly moving, changing light reflections from the surface every moment. That was the reason why I took the photos - the ones I've gradually use as pattern. Drawing water requires skill in shading and to blur graphite.

Today, I drew the water tap, of which I slightly left water flowing, I took a picture of the tap and began to shade, here's my process:

      

final version:

Indeed, I have to add more pictures which are little bit older but still looks good. Here are my eperiments how to draw water flowing into a glass.

this one is close-up view on water drop hitting the water surface causing "splash cup" and drops.

Today I gathered a few sample images. One portrait is a graphite pencil cartoon, it was no problem. I used traditional tools, pencil hardness HB, "blur tool" and rubber. Usually when I draw the eye I do not forget for coal. It delivers a true black color of lens. Why use charcoal? Graphite pencil, leaving a trail of shiny, while the charcoal (charcoal) does not reflect light but absorbs. Chemical consistence of graphite and charcoal is different. Maybe I will show some examples later...

Now some images

I have to admit that quality of my drawings depends on original pattern. Here is example of black eyle lenses drawn by charcoal pencil.

I got the opportunity to draw a portrait in colour. At first I was concerned about the availability of the material in the stores. I bought a small set of colour tones - they were pretty basic colors - Brown, yellow and red. I have to confess that I did not expect such a positive result. a combination of these colors with white pencil completed the right tone.

As always, I used sheet of paper of 60x50 cm size with hard texture on it, this is called "China white" less white than "ice white" paper. Watch results... 

Skin color was real challenge for me. It takes time to find out how to combine brown and red pencil.

I think, not bad at first time :), but next portrait must be placed upon softer texture. It will allow more details what is leading as to better result.

Mouth drawing from side and front view

Thanks For Visiting. Everything you see here will be a drawing, painting, and sketching. I'll try to figure out how to create a realistic drawing using pencil. I'll show you a collection of my work. At the beginning I will elaborate on the topic of drawing portraits from simple sketches to complex realistic portraits.

HOW TO DRAW HUMAN FACE

Today I have prepared a little exercise. I'll give it the name of "How to draw a human face". We already know that the human face is composed of several parts. Usually they are the eyes, ears, nose, mouth, chin and some hair.

..so I'm starting to draw eyes... 

On the following pictures you can see how I draw the other parts of the face from the sketch to shading out the shape.

..nose:

As you see I do gray shades around nose to show how it is connected to face, not just single nose pulled out of face. The fourth figure is an example of how the nose firmly embeds in the face and goes up to the mouth.
