Della - original charcoal and pastel portrait
This drawing is one that I think will end up as a painting. Her solemn demeanor appealed to me so much - didn't have enough time to add more details and maybe that's a good thing since her face and hair seem to be the most important. But we'll see. Sometimes when I turn things into a painting, there's a totally different result - probably happens to y'all sometimes too - right? I did this on Strathmore 12 x 9" toned blue paper, using General Pencil Co Peel and Sketch charcoal, plus their compressed pastels. Thanks for stopping by!

Her demeanor is captivating. I see why it might become a painting with a Mona Lisa personlity in profile.
So glad you appreciated my model - I really liked her look and Mona Lisa In profile - what a great idea - Thanks so much!
