Skull Drawing

Inspiration- Google.com images/ skull drawings

Process

For this drawing, I wanted to work on my proportion skills. Also, I've really enjoyed my final pieces of drawing animal skulls, so I wanted to expand on that and try a different kind. I first went on google.com and found a few references with different angles and views to help me have a better understanding. I then used a black paper and white colored pencils and a colorless blender to create my skull. I began to erase one of the sides of the nose and it caused a discoloration in the white, so I began going over that place with the blender to smooth out the color. This worked, but it caused a change with the color and shading on the skull as a whole, so I blended the entirety of the skull.

Judgment

 I really wish I had used a black matte board because I think it would've handled a higher level of shading and erasing; on the contrary, I am happy with the proportions and shape I achieved for this piece.
