Sheba is looking good


Sheba is coming together well. I have been building up the layers of color and she is really coming alive on my paper. As I work now I am always studying things and making changes. I wasn't happy with her nose so I did some extra work on that area and I am much happier with it. I am still not completely satisfied with the highlight areas in the eyes so I have not made them too pronounced yet. The top of her head is laid out but I can see it needs more shading. Just seeing my picture here on the screen also gives me a better idea at where I am going.
One thing I am finding very useful is my paint brush. It is very helpful in giving me a subtle layer of graphite where I need it. I can see I am going to be using it a lot. Well back to work.
