Thank you for an exceptionally detailed lesson of a Portrait with Pen & Ink. Though you created your picture in pen & ink, I needed practice with my graphite pencils & I followed along using the same hatching & crosshatching techniques as you did. I only wish that you had stated in the beginning in which direction the light was coming from. It appears that it is coming from above. It would have made it easier to know where the shadow would be, making conscious decisions about highlights & shadows, rather than just following you along…
Again, thank you, so love your work.
Regards,
Jean Marie
