Belinda Ivey Colored Pencil Portrait
Portrait in the “Back to my Roots: Pencil Drawings” series
Today is my beautiful wife’s birthday so I am posting my 18 x 24 inch grid drawing of her. I decided to do this portrait of my wife using colored pencils. Happy Birthday!
About this series:
This summer has been a return to my love for pencil drawing. We set up an art boot camp of sorts at my creative agency, KarBel Multimedia, for our high school interns to teach drawing techniques that would help them improve. We set up still life scenes with random objects placed on a table for them to draw. The first still life scene was of simple shapes, but over the days and weeks the scenes got more complicated. I joined them in my spare time to see if I could keep up. I ended up drawing all of the scenes the interns drew as well as a couple of large grid drawings. In this series, I will share all of the scenes I drew this summer.
