My Unblended Graphite Sketch of an Oldie

in ART 🌻🎨📝4 years ago

Hi guys,
Today, I'll be sharing with you one of my very first sketches after about a decade of abandonment. When I started sketching back in mid July, I took the whole process real slow trying to master certain techniques as blending was to be learnt later on. I got inspired to make this Sketch while seeing a TV series titled "See." The storyline borders on the idea that everyone on earth became blind as a result of a viral outbreak and those with sight were hunted and killed. Towards the end of the season I noticed that grey specks had gathered in the beards of the general who hunted those with sight. This piece also helped me experiment light and darkness in a way that I've never done before. It was actually quite exciting. This is what I came up with;

The sketch was made with an HB, 6B, 8B and 10B.


Thanks for stopping by guys, can't wait for tomorrow.
