Hello, Dexter Morgan

Finally finished another portrait! I’m slightly obsessed with Dexter at the moment, hence my inspiration. Mostly charcoal and a little graphite on paper. It took me several hours over the course of a few days to finish this.

I tried a new method with this piece that I’ve never done before in any of my drawings. I used the grid system, which to those who may not know, is where you map out an even grid on both the reference picture and your drawing area, then just go through square by square filling in the details. I must say, I DID NOT like this at all. At first it was kinda cool, it being a new way to look at drawing in general and all, but after a while I began to feel too contained. Like at times, my eyes were telling me that this line or that line needed to be further down, but I was afraid to do so because of the grid lines. Ah well, here’s to new experiences.

Enjoy!

The Newlyweds

My newest completed drawing. It took about 7 hours or so from start to finish (taking a few breaks to cook dinner and play Transformers!) Graphite and charcoal on paper.
