I decided I need to brush up on my pencil skills, so I made a drawing of three African Masks. (Source - Sidagh Gallery)
All of them are from around the turn of the century.
I was pretty pleased with the way they turned out, I guess. Not all of the masks were perfectly symmetrical, which made them interesting to draw.

Wow...your pencil skills are great. The shadows and highlights accentuate every curve. ^^ I'm still in high school, so I'm learning how to do this sort of thing in art class. My mom has some Costa Rican masks hanging in our house...they're beautiful like these, and are very colorful. (Maybe I'll attempt to draw them now...) I typically fav colorful things, but congratulations, yours is the first pencil work going into my Favorites. :D

OMG!!! Thanks so much for the fave on this one! I've been meaning to return to pencil sketches again and improve my skills. My sister (who's 13 years younger than I am and will be a senior in high school next year) is a MUCH better pencil artist than I am. I envy her skill!
Let's both keep practicing!
And thanks very much for the fave!! :heart:
