Portrait - Drawing Moss

Both versions offer an equal likeness to the reference, so from a technical standpoint they are tied. As far as which one is "better" depends on the viewer's preference of style. The pen version is crisp and sharp, giving the portrait a certain seriousness and intensity. The pencil version shows a more sensitive side, or a more "vintage" or "old-timey" kind of vibe, if that makes sense(?). Personally, I like both 🙂

oh a comment. Thanks for the input. We do have very different styles. I used a mechanical pencil and she used a good old wooden pencil so that's part of it. It's better not create any family drama. 'Both good' is the reasonable thing to say!

Wow, your mechanical pencil looks so sharp on my screen, I really thought it was pen. Nicely done! LOL, yes, both are good. It's great to enjoy actual quality time with family and loved ones, a true blessing. Thanks for sharing!
