A Graphite Portrait

Going back to my traditional portraits from way back when, I share this with you. My love for wrinkles and expression started when I just picked up my graphite and started conjouring human faces. I noticed then that when I drew faces with the above features thoroughly they happen to look more alive and beautiful. So, for a time, that was my main focus.


As you well know, I outgrew that phase and moved on to other subjects, forms and mediums. Its been years now but every once in a while (like last week) I revisit this memory and make on art piece from it.
