My Black & White Pencils Drawings

More of my pencil drawings, black and whites. I prefer to work in black and white when doing portraits because of the raw beauty I see in black and white work, although I'm still struggling to capture what I see in black and white pieces... I'll keep trying, practice makes perfect!

I am naming this girl Amanda, I've always loved this name, Amanda. Mom says I love Amanda so much because it's one of the names she thought to give me before I was born...

Considering I already have two first names it would be over kill eh? (She said I couldn't make up my mind on my name.. XD) Anyways I thought she was pretty.

Amanda was done as just random drawing, no reference... and she doesn't really exist, I mean, I'm sure there's Amanda's and I'm sure someone looks similar but this Amanda is out of my head... :)

While the anatomy on this is better then I usually do it's still slightly off, the necklace (as my friend oh so bluntly pointed out) is going down in a way it shouldn't be since she is leaning... however I think it's fine, it's just sitting on a part of her body I didn't draw lol, and if I did finish it it would look fine the way it is!! Also the hair is kind of sketchy, as usual I lost patience and did it quick.

I love hand to head sketching, I'll probably write about it more, we'll see. I used an HB pencil, a 4B 6B and 8B pencils as well. For darkened areas I used my new Prisma colors, the black one for shadows and hard lines and the white one for highlights. :)

This is just randomness, I was on a kick after drawing Amanda and wasn't ready to sleep yet so I drew her. Again just someone in my head... a nameless someone I guess... I'm so terrible with names, I don't name my drawings I Key-Word them, lol!

Her eyes kind of in some way reminds me of my mom's, but I'm not sure... I used HB pencil, 2B, 4B, 8B, 6B, pencils for this and again used the prismacolors for shading and highlights. At this point I really started to enjoy my new prismacolors, and started working with colors that I may put up someplace else later.

This is an unnamed girl I draw a lot and drew a different picture on my Pencil Sketches Hub, you may go see, she's at the bottom.

I'm not sure if I'l ever name her, maybe if I pick back up this project I will consider names again, at the moment I'm not sure if I will pick back up the project. Considering it never got very far anyways.. :P With current event going on at my house I haven't been able to put as much into my art as I would like to. Also haven't been feeling very "creative".

She was done with HB, 2B, 4B and 8B pencil(s) for major areas...

Hub Challenge Hub 28, Week 4... Almost there!! Times running out!! ^_^

This is not at ALL how I would draw this anymore. Took me a lot og guts to put this up because I find it embarrassing at this point. :P

While I like the overall stance and pose I would not draw the face like that anymore and don't like it anymore.

I guess this character, (being the same one) is still a work in progress and needs to be worked on if I ever pick the project back up. This is the same girl as above... and on my other hub.

The scene is she just woke up, in fact I never planned more of this little project but her getting up... funny huh? The more of this project I put up the more it sparks my interest again, maybe I will pick it back up but probably not anytime soon. ;)

Done in HB, 4B, 8B pencils...
