"Prove yourself as the best artist for the week".

in Steem Fashion&Styleyesterday (edited)

Greetings and a lovely day to you all in this comment, today I have come to participate in this Contest titled Prove yourself as the best artist for the week organized by @dequeen, and a very big thanks to her for sustaining this contest. Drawing with pencil is more than just putting lines on paper — it is the art of capturing a feeling, a moment, a story without saying a word. The drawing below is a perfect example of that quiet storytelling: a young child, glasses on, with a raised finger over the lips, suggesting silence. Here are the steps I used in creating this drawing, Stay tuned.

Step by Step process

step 1

To begin with my drawing, I started by lightly sketching the shape of the head. I started by drawing the oversized glasses on her eyes, then I drew her oval shaped head.

step 2

After doing that, I then also drew her hair and her finger which is close to her mouth suggesting silence.

step 3

Next I drew the shoulder and collar of the girl, The girl's sweater was drawn with emphasis on its knitted texture. I used closely packed lines to create the ribbed pattern along the collar and sleeves.

After that I drew the book which she was holding in the other hand.

My final result



This pencil drawing was more than a technical sketch; it was a moment captured in time — a child’s thoughtful hush, her oversized glasses adding a hint of playfulness, and her book suggesting curiosity. With just a pencil and some patience, I translated emotion onto paper. Through every line and shade, this drawing reminds us that silence, like art, speaks volumes. Hope you all enjoyed my drawing today.
