Paper Bag Study 2


Second paper bag study. I'm really into the eye with the flower for some reason! Used charcoal pencil, colored pencils, Faber Castell pitt pen, some pigment ink, and the Uniball Signo white gel pen. I like the way the eye turned out. I'm really liking this brown paper too. I need to do a third for a series, so stay tuned! I eventually will do a self portrait and reading Mixed-Media Self-Portraits . I finally got a copy after waiting forever.

Hi Marilyn,
Love your "study" and the way you placed the rose on her face.
Looking forward to "study 3" :)

Hi Marilyn

Thanks for the nice comment on my blog. But I think you are wrong about your ability to dray faces. I think the face on your paper bag is really nice. The eye is pretty and the mouth is great!
