This one was special.


This was an illustration I did of my friend for her upcoming birthday. Took me quite some time to finish because I was really slow with everything. I wanted to try and be as accurate as I could. Especially since I wasn't working from that great of a photo. There are still some things I see in it that I don't like, but I tried my best within the time span. I had to send it to her quickly so that it will arrive around the time of her actual birthday. The tools I used on this one were various forms of charcoal pencil, compressed charcoal, and I did the highlights with a white charcoal pencil.
