#16
Hello! This is a man I found in the internet, amazing face! The photo is in here, so you can know the story behind it.

I couldn’t get down the bone structure as I well as I wanted to.
(Graphite mostly, some charcoal, don’t know how much time, four, five hours…? 😓)
I’m sorry for the typo. The sentence I mentioned is: “Every time we make something, it’s a tiny triumph.”

Hello!
Today, I dared to copy a drawing by Zorn. I absolutely love Zorn. 🙌🏼
First time with hatching and ink. I had difficulties because I used an old cheap fountain pen which was a bit dry and had to clean it several times with water, not making it better. It looks a bit messy.
At the end I drew by accident that contour line on the face which wasn’t supposed to be there. And also the right shoulder should be lower. The forehead is too light… Etc. But it was so much fun!I read this sentence today: “Every time we make something, it’s a tina triumph.”
Where is #16? 😢 It’s past midnight in Spain now, so it’s like I missed a day. Could anyone tell me if I have to upload it again or just wait? 🙏🏼
(And where is my badge, by the way? 😬)
Thank you, André! Sometimes I spend much more time in a similar kind of portrait. I guess it depends on the day. 😊
I’ve just uploaded #16 drawing but I guess there was some problem because I added a link with it. 😯
This situation is not going to end soon. Drawing for me is like meditation, like a therapy to avoid anxiety in this crazy situation. Let’s hope it ends soon. 🤞🏼Be safe! 😊
Hi, Cecilia! Your challenge is amazing! 👏🏼👏🏼 Good work!
Thank you, Cecilia!😊 You are very kind. 🙂🙏🏼
Hi again, Iliya,
I think I understand now what you mean by looking at Antonio Lopez drawings for ‘shorthand’ hair. Thank you!

Hi, Iliya,
thank you so much. I’ve been learning by myself at home for like three years (I’m in NMA, since last December) with no feedback so I really appreciate these comments.
Although I’m Spanish I am not familiar at all with Antonio López’s drawings. In fact I had to look for some in google and didn’t find any (just a couple of portraits).
I’ll study Ingres portraits. I love them. My favorite draftsman though is Fechin. And just yesterday I discovered Petr Sadovski. His drawings are amazing and looking closely they are so “wild” and astonishing.
I also love your drawings and your course in NMA which I’m starting (continuing) very soon.
Believe me, it’s been exciting to find your comments. 😊 I take note of everything.Thanks so much again!
Stay safe!

After my frustration yesterday, the stained face, today I wanted to take it easy and draw something quick. I like it when a drawing looks like it’s been done quickly and easily. I love to see the masters sketches, for example. But, anyway, I don’t know how to do that.
