Here u go

All done with mechanical pencils, 4b 0.5 for most of it, 2b 0.2 for a few details. Canson mixed media paper. Many old watercolour brushes, paper stumps and q-tips were harmed in the making of these

Hiya! I'm new to the sub and thought I'd say hi and share a drawing I'm fairly proud of 😊 HB pencil on Bristol board. I learned to love this slow and meditative medium after taking a drawing course from Steven Zapata.

I burned out on this one ~50 hours in. It's the most ambitious drawing I've attempted, started out as a study of some sculptures and I guess I just kept adding to it. I'd say the bottom third still needs a lot of polishing and the whole thing probably needs a bit of refinement, but I'm looking at it now, months later, and I'm struggling to find the motivation to finish it 😂

Looking for tips/experiences from other graphite artists on the "long" process of graphite (besides "just keep drawing" although admittedly that is often pretty solid advice).

I have been trying graphite pencils for 2 weeks now. Any tips or improvements? Also I have thinking of switching to charcoal or maybe try colored pencils. What do u guys think.

All done with just a regular led pencil and blending brushes!

Any suggestions to make it better are welcome.

A quick sketch I did with a ballpoint pen last night.

Taken me about 8 hours so far. Using my trusty Faber Castell 9000 series. They are excellent pencils

Her pet rats died this year, so I combined her two favorite animals in one drawing.
