2) So i tried drawing faces... (From Peru to Ghana)

Second "good" piece. 2005
So i tried drawing faces...
Pencil on colored board

I took it from a magazine as well, she looked so beautiful i thought i would be good to try and draw her face. After like the 4th try i got this! I remember being so happy about it when i finished it, it had been the best face i had ever drawn, if not the first (A face that simulates reality of course).

I thought my shadows were pretty successful, specially in the nose. You can't see the lines that distinguish the nose from the rest of the face, it's all shadows that give the picture that sense of volume. I was very happy.
