Oh yeah, and I miss her too. This sketch was done in about 20 minutes with a Dixon Ticonderoga HB 2 Graphite Pencil on an 8×10 Strathmore Series 400 drawing paper pad. The eyes need more work with a sharp pencil making fine lines to set them right in size, shape, and placement, but this was a good first step without taking any measurements (just eyeballing it). The pencil was about half sharp when I started and completely dull towards the end and I was too lazy to reach for my knife to do a better job towards the end, but like I wrote, it’s a good preliminary sketch and would work just fine for a painting.
