ear-to-ear smile

purple woman

i kept smiling to myself when i was sketching her – her smile is so adorable! and so cute!! and so contagious!!! I wish i look like this when i am in the “ol’ granny” days of my life!

U know, the fun of sketching with a color pencil or pastel color is that you simply cannot rub the wrong lines.. you made a mistake – you just cannot erase.. i love when i dont have to depend upon my eraser for my sketches to smile at me! : )

p.s: this page was way too big for it to get scanned – so the whole of the portrait got cropped a little from all the four sides

red smirk?!?

I thought of trying that ‘pastel work’ guy with a red pencil..
lately i’ve gone crazy with pastels and pencil colors.. i keep doodling with them.. while commuting via buses, standing in the train (while trying to ignore that shorty woman’s ramblings on how my sketchbook is hovering over her face and how am MISUSING MY HEIGHT FACTOR(!?!?!?) ..

This one i did only last night – so tell me, which one do you think is better!?! :)
