Here is a sketch of a big eyed maiden. She is glancing sweetly backwards... I think she is most likely a mermaid, although she could also be a fairy angel or a goddess. I'm unsure if I'll paint her or not, but I did enjoy sketching her.
I've decided to try and do a sketch a day in October. This is from day 5.
I would like to try to reach a goal of 100 faces sketched on consecutive days, I started this effort on September 1st, 2017... This is face 35.
This is a rough sketch. You may see some of my finished paintings at lisarusso.com if you'd like.
