Here is a sketch of a big eyed gothic maiden. She seems to have a wise gaze. I think she is most likely a fairy angel, although she could also be a goddess or a mermaid. I'm unsure if I'll paint her or not, but I did enjoy sketching her. She is in my tiny sketchbook that measures 3.5x5.5 inches. I am using Col-Erase Prismacolor pencils, I like having the option to erase a bit.
I've decided to try and do a sketch a day in November. This is day 20.
This is a sketch in colored pencils. You may see some of my finished paintings at lisarusso.com if you'd like. I'm not really a colored pencil artist but I am exploring something new for the sketchbook. I will be juxtaposing my usual rough sketches with the colored pencil sketches at varying intervals. I tend to sketch very lightly, so these and my usual pencil ones are darkened a bit in photoshop for online viewing.
I am also participating in Sunday Sketches. To view more Sunday Sketches, please visit:

Lovely sketch. Thanks for the info about the colorase pencils, they sound good. I will see if I can get some - or something similar - over here. Have a good, new week, hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteyour tiny sketch is lovely!
ReplyDeleteI could never get the Col-Erase Prismacolor to erase, so gave up on erasing and switched to pens lol
ReplyDeleteThe paper and drawing colors make this so real
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Valerie-Jael, Christine, Jennifer, and Martin. I think the lines have to be fairly faint for the col-erase to erase, I'm so impressed by people who sketch in ink...
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Regine!
