Marianna. Pen drawing commission.

I have been working on a family of 4. Here is the mom of the family.

I tried not to get too grim with her. I think she came out pretty well.

I started with a light pencil of her face. And then very slowly took a fine micron pen to outline most of the face. I sent the client this image to show where I was with it. He told me that it was the perfect amount of 'grim', so that's always pleasing!

Doing the hatching.

The final image size was 3.5x4.5". 1 inch bigger than a baseball card.

Here is my other post with the father drawn:

I think it is good to step out of character sometimes. Don't worry about the lack of grim. There is a lot of expression in your handwriting. I like the tension between the subject and the intensity of your marks when viewed up close.
