Sketchy Portrait

This is a full portrait. Maybe you could call it and extended bust shot. This is a model at school and this picture took about and hour and a half to complete. This was me getting so frustrated with my picture that I just started to sketch. There wasn't much drawing here. This was completed I believe in compressed charcoal on charcoal paper that was about 24"x30". Larger than I was used to but it is one of my more favorite pieces. The picture below is a detail shot of the head. Not much detail to show, but enough that I thought it deserved a better shot. Click on them to enlarge them.
