The Beginning

The first preliminary sketch.

I’m thinking of painting another portrait of my young niece, she’s full of attitude, in a good way, and I love sketching her. Here’s the first of the preliminary sketches from a photo of her, with graphite block onto a heavy Khadi paper. It’s the very beginning of the process. More sketches are needed before I commit anything to canvas.

I had a little play with Gradient Map in Adobe Photoshop with a detail of the sketch. It’s fun but a little on the “She Hulk” side 😀

I'm an artist / printmaker / scribbler. I love drawing and all the geeky stuff associated with printmaking, working in a figurative style. I live in Wales with husband and demented cats. And my real name is Rose Davies :D
