Portrait 65/100

 











I’m still following along with a week of online lessons called Creative Jumpstart, LFI 2026. This is installment 2 of 5. I didn’t have all the supplies to follow along exactly—instead of a nib ink pen and black ink, I used micron pens and black gouache. This was fun! And adding the shading lines was a meditative task and was so relaxing. So-- fun and relaxing. Based on lesson by Dylan Sara.


Here are some process photos:
