(I used a finishing nail duck tapped to an old pencil to get the negative effect in his hair, then filled in with 2B, B & F...then swiped it with a kneaded eraser. I read about how to do that in an EXCELLENT Book I HIGHLY recommend called "Drawing from LINE to LIFE" by Mike Sibley. www.sibleyfineart.com WORTH every penny! He's an artist from England?
looks great dad. You are always really great at the eyes.
