Hi steemians

So I decided to draw a 10 by 12 inches of my favorite foreign artist @Rihanna my Barbadian singer, actress, etc
Here is a link to the reference picture I used.
The materials I used for this drawing were: gloss card, 2B and 3B graphite pencils, soft general charcoal pencil, charcoal powder, mono zero eraser and my brushes.

I started shading with 2B, then 3B and finally with my charcoal powder from the left hand side of the face and then proceeded to the middle until I was able to cover the face

I continued using the same procedure on the neck and body while observing every contrast and highlights

The portrait took me 72hours (3days) to complete as a beginner who is striving for the best
