My hyperrealism drawing of a lady
Hello, my good people hope we are doing fine? The work before us is a work i cherish so much, one work that really stretched me beyound my limit, the work is quite large with a size of 20x24 Inch although that's not the largest work i have done ever. The lady in the picture is a lady i got to know later on after i finished the work, because through my contact and social media account she was able to trace me, and when she finally got to message me she expressed her joy about the work, and also told me how her dad and mum felt when they saw it. At that point i was happy because my work made them happy, she even told me that anyone who comes into her sitting room always admire the works of my hands, my work has travelled far more than i could imagine.
Finished work

Incredible portrait you’ve got here, @iamguchidanart. I’ve often checked out brushes but never really found a place for them with pencils, what do you use them for? Where exactly are they most useful? Thank you!
Eh, thanks for tagging #artzone.
I use the brushes to blend my work while shading, one techniques i normally use is that i scrap the mouth of my pencil into powder form then use the brushes to apply gently on my paper, its not any kind of brush you will use the kind of brush i use have very soft mouth.
