Intense-looking young man. I did think when I first saw it that it could do with a bit of dark, but actually I think it's striking as is: and the amount of work involved is one reason amongst several - well, the main reason, really! - why I rarely use coloured pencil, even though they're so much better these days than they once were. There's rarely much point in battling on with a picture when you've really had your fill of it: it tends to show. You were wise to stop.

Thanks for commenting Robert, I was about to delete it as I thought nobody liked it. Yep coloured pencil is most definitely time consuming! But then I can pick it up at any time and have very little to put away when Im done, so it has its benefits.

This is jamie, my son. Faber castell polychromos coloured pencils on bristol board. I am glad to put the pencils away on this one, it took ages! I could go back and make the shadowed side a lot deeper but I have had enough!
