WIP: Pencil Self-Portraitby ~Catching-Smoke

Traditional Art / Drawings / Portraits & Figures

©2012-2013 ~Catching-Smoke

Pretty self explanatory.

From my Tumblr entry:

The best photos of faces to draw tend to be photographs with imperfections, usually the photographs of yourself that you hate.

At least that is what I believe. It is far more interesting to draw a face if you have bags under your eyes from lack of sleep, creases, wrinkles or even spots. You may hate them but they add character to the face.

I’d much rather draw a normal human face ‘warts and all’ than airbrushed, caked-in-make-up, boring ones.

Rope dug into Patrick’s wrists as he struggled to free his hands. His hot, damp breath washed over his face, trapped by the fabric sack secured over his head.

A floorboard creaked. Patrick froze, his back rigid against the chair, and strained his ears. Another creak.

“Hello?” he called.

The sound of swishing fabric.

“Who’s there? Where am I? Why’d you bring me here?” Blurred memories swam through his mind: drinking at the bar; stumbling home; a shadow sweeping out from an alley.

Fingers grasped his chin and jerked his head upward. “Hush.” A woman’s voice.
