Eyes, for goodness sake, EYES!

A very good 'scribbled' portrait, eyes not bad!

Well I like it a lot Lionel. I might join you in the scribble technique ....

Lionel, this is very good. It's amazing what you can achieve when you relax and place no importance on how it turns out.

Agreed, love your fine lines in this speedy portrait Lionel, lovely tonal work

Well now, there's a surprise! Thank you all for your kind comments! I think I'll have another go!

Very good sketch here Lionel.

I like sketches like this and it works well.

Thank you so much, Louise and Dawn. I'm trying to get back into my acrylic painting but intend to do more scribbling soon, (if only to improve on the eyes).

It's a really good piece, Lionel. Your use of lines and marks is super.

The eyes are out of alignment, as you know yourself; but all the same it's an expressive drawing. Glad to read that Bushniki has achieved something, even if it's only encouraging people to post their work! I think he's unfairly malilgned, personally, but there we are ..... you can't please everyone.

I recently came across a web site of Scribbled and Gesture Drawing. I thought I would try my hand at scribbling. My wife quite likes this - even though the yes are terrible. I certainly had no intention of posting it until I saw the one from Bushniki below. Black drawing pen 01 on paper I picked up in WH Smith.
