Charcoal portrait. By Alejandra Her
Some time ago I draw this portrait. Today I want to share it with you.
I used to draw portraits, I have always liked them and in general I outline my illustration towards the human figure, especially faces.
This is the portrait of a friend, who later became part of my family.
I used this rough charcoal sticks a a very quality watercolor cotton paper.
I miss making those kinds of drawings, by hand, live, using quality paper. Lately I have only drawn digital, but this is because due to the lock down issue I have not been able to buy paper. At least I have something, I'm not complaining.
It is satisfying to see that over the years I have continued to do what I love, and that I can currently live on it.
Greetings to all.
See you in the next post.

Hace ya algún tiempo que hice este retrato. Hoy quiero compartirlo con ustedes.
Antes solía dibujar retratos, siempre me han gustados y en general perfilo mi ilustración hacia la figura humana, especialmente los rostros.
Este es el retrato de una amiga, que luego se convirtió en parte de mi familia.
Extraño hacer ese tipo de dibujos, a mano suelta, en vivo, usando un papel de calidad. Ultimamente he dibujado solo digital, pero esto es porque debido al tema cuarentena no he podido comprar papel. Al menos tengo algo, no me quejo.
Es satisfactorio ver que a lo largo de los años he seguido haciendo lo que amo, y que actualmente puedo vivir de ello.
Saludos para todos.
Nos vemos en el próximo post.
Very nice, @alejandra.her

Beautiful work and well blended. Did you use brown paper for it?

No. It is actually a cotton paper with a light cream tone.
