Eye, eye!

I made myself complete this exercise at first light so I didn't find an excuse not to do it....a bin to wash out or cupboard to tidy. This was drawing an eye in pencil, pen, charcoal and colours. I am not too horrified by the result to throw my sketchbook in the bin, although I think the pen one is a bit scary!
I am going to sound like an art teacher now (I wish) but I can see the purpose of really looking at the subject. In the past I have drawn detail I think is there, not what is actually there.

 

I also drew a sketch of real people last night which I think I can live with.......

and as promised this is a present for Mummy made with my Grandson.
