Final piece.
I started experimenting with red pencils in 2017 and kept doing it for the fun of it. Now with this last sketch, 7 years later, I can finally say the collection is finished.
Thanks for visiting!
Do something difficult.

A crow to remember all the crows by.
A couple of days ago, a teacher told my class he never intends to depict reality when making drawings. According to him, the task seems irrelevant and not important to his work.
Made this rendition for my grandmother.
At times shadows keep a brain guessing or present themselves as an illusion.
Plenty of mistakes, but sometimes that makes it work.
Not all that satisfied with this one. What do you think?
I think it's important to abstain from getting every detail right and to leave room for the mind to wander. An exact replica of your subject would be quite the bore.
I try looking for a unique approach. If someone else is doing it, you might as well quit.
After trying some different methods, I chose to invent someone who doesn't exist. If you want to excel in your creative endeavours, you have to be merciless and allow no negligence.
I am resuming, after a long hiatus, my passion for drawing people! I want to continue this passion so feel free to contact me if you'd like to be drawn.
From an old sketchbook. I was only mildly happy with this one.
Might have made my lines too thick, what do you think?
Sometimes you have to do one little thing and that is enough.
No easy task because I might be using paper which is too coarse.
Might make some more sketches if these become well-liked.
Unheimlich....
Little figure I drew from memory.
I tried something a little easier, not sure if it worked out...
The treacherous nature of images blurs the line between the ethical and the unethical.
To show someone's personality in a drawing is to know them. I don't know Amandla, so I might be off. What do you guys think?
Finding and depicting the soul of your subject should be difficult. The subtleties are often what make a piece work....
I choose for a certain degree of sfumato in my drawings because it approximates the strangeness of a dream....
First attempt at returning to my sanguine collection...
