Update 009

This is a new technique I actually discovered a little less than a month ago. In Portraiture class, we had switched from doing entirely tonal drawings to all line, and any kind of tone was forbidden to be used. So naturally, that led me to outlining and drawing the face. But unlike most drawings, I chose to also define the face by giving the shadows they had shape and forms. This makes the image seem more realistic and interesting overall.
