Did you use a grid to work of?

gah...I know this response is really late...I wasn't receiving notifications for awhile. Anyway, I did not use a grid on this portrait but I do use grids for weird face angles and full body portraits. I teach an art class for young people and I always teach the grid method to help them along. It's a great drawing tool! Cheers!

Thank you so much for your kind feedback! I really appreciate it! Cheers!

Adds an obligatory fangirl squeal of glee here. You draw beautiful portraits.
