WIP work in progress

I haven't quit drawing - I'm just taking a looooong time trying to learn about pencil crayons.  I'm finding it difficult, but nonetheless, there are a few people I want to do in color. 

Took a stab at some colour

I don't think I've used pencil crayons since about grade 5.

I'm not going to finish this, because I wanted to experiment with how to put colours on the paper and not really do a finished product.  I thought it was pretty tricky!  Anyhow... here's a piece of it. Its the same guy that I just last week.  I thought I'd try him in colour because I like the way his nose and lips are kinda purplish. 

Now I think I'll try to do a proper picture.

DRAWING #1, 2016

Well, here's my first drawing of the year.  Its pencil / charcoal of a nice elderly man who I met at a local function.  I was going to do more compositional drawings this year, but I knew when I met him that I just had to draw him before doing anything else.  I might just try him in colour next.  I'm not much for colour, but he has a lot of great reds in his face, and I got some pencil crayons, so I'll see how far I get with that idea.
