Dan

I took this photo of the drawing I did on Monday before I drew over it last night. It's incomplete and, as always, I wish I had more time to work on it. Dan's face is slighty more angular and I drew his torso too short. He's not as flabby as I drew him either and his legs are too big. I'd also like to add more contrast between the shadows and the highlights. I had to use a blending stump instead of my fingers too, which I didn't like. I understand the reason for not blending with your fingers since the oils can affect how the charcoal lays on the paper, but it's still a hard habit to break.
