Landscape sketch

Today I took a few minutes to draw this small plain air in the landscape where I live. The morning sun was so wonderful that it was fun to sit there drawing.

The sketch shows tree trunks of our neighboring farmer , who's selling them for firewood.

Portrait of a woman

For the WetCanvas Portrait Challenge today I draw this beautiful woman.

Berna Escudero

A drawing I did after Robert Henri's wonderful painting. It took me 3 times to try before I was satisfied with the result.

Too bad, but I found no information  who Berna Escudero was. I was fascinated on her expression that for me is a mixture of pride and disdain. Her look is childlike and in an adult manner, it's telling a story...

Murateri updated

Following Sladdi's comment concerning too much lightness of the hair, I darkened some shadows of the drawing. Hope it will work better now.

Drawing

Drawing is the hardest thing for me, but essentially for building up good paintings (I mean). I often draw, but most of my results are only scetches. Tried to draw a little more detailed and with more attention to light and shadow in this two I finished today.
