Just to get the first one out of the way and hopefully the succeeding ones would flow more easily. It's like putting the first lines on a blank paper. Those are usually the hardest to do. My reason for creating this sketch doesn't make this less important. My daughter is five now and she's a big five year old, mind you. Of late, she can follow posing instructions whenever I want to take photos of her.
This time around, I asked her to continue what she was doing -- which was watching cartoons on TV -- and don't mind me sketching her. She was up to the task and I was able to put in some rough pencils quickly. I followed through with a brush pen which I couldn't skillfully handle as much as I wanted to. Showing a bit of rust there huh! Then I put in quick watercolor washes to give some hint of color in there.
I didn't want to make it look "finished" because sketches are supposed to look like sketches. Just the way I like them to be.
More to come!
