I started a new Moleskine sketchbook to use mainly to practice drawing faces. Here’s my first attempt at adding color to my sketches. I do not have the various shades of colored pencils that Suzi recommends so I had to use what I have. I am waiting for pencils from Dick Blick. This was also my first experience to use clear gesso and I love the texture I was able to achieve. I didn’t realize that the skin tones of the two girls are so different until I scanned my journal pages.
