Sketchbook Project – Lisa

sketch of LisaIt’s funny how different these pages look when they’re scanned and reduced in size and viewed on a computer monitor.

This is my sister Lisa. The sketch looks sort of like her, but something isn’t quite right. Sorry, sis, I’ll try better next time.

I haven’t drawn faces in several decades, so this project is really challenging.

As with Ollie’s sketch, this one is done with pencil on a page taken from an old redbook map (trimmed to 8 x 4.75 inches).

This drawing is part of my Sketchbook Project. I’m not quite ready to spill the beans but will soon. Stay tuned.

    You did good Sis. My cheeks are fuller than i’d like but that’s my fault, not yours! 2010 was the Year From Hell and I can only hope 2011 is better. If nothing else, I am now a piece of art! I was told once I looked like da Vinci’s Venus, (which I though was a compliment til I took a good look). Now, I can stand tall and be proud. Thank you!

      I’m glad you’re not too unhappy with it. :) I’m grateful that you and your family are willing to participate in this little project. Did you see Ollie’s sketch yesterday?
