This pencil drawing was rendered using a number of different drawing pencils. Although getting the proportions was somewhat difficult, the most difficult part of this pencil drawing was achieving the right textures.

Blending your Graphite

As you can see with this drawing of a boy, I spent a large amount of time blending various hard nesses of graphite together. Blending hard and soft pencil markings together takes a lot of time, but is a very important part of the drawing process. Using a tortillion may help you achieve the tones that you are after. You can make one yourself by visiting our drawing supplies web page.
