**Edit- I updated the photo.
A graphite portrait of Imogen Poots, a British actress. I honestly haven't even seen a single show or movie that she is in, but I absolutely loved the picture, so I drew it!

Hi, I agree, very nice job. I did my own version of this picture in bic ballpoint pen, I hope you like it: [link]

By the way, I was way too lazy to do the background...

Oh cool! You did am awesome job! I like the way that you used both black and blue ink. And the texture on her jacket looks really good.

Yeah that background would be hard with ballpoint :(

Thanks for the comment!

It may sound strange, but I did not use blue ink at all! It seems that the fresh black ink has a bluish touch that after a day or two shades and shows an uniform black color. It happened me before. Regarding the background... it wasn't going to be big deal, I was simply lazy.

Thanks a lot for your opinion!

Hmmm that's odd. In my experience black hasn't turned blue at all. But it did work in your favor for this drawing!

Really odd, I thought at first that it was due to the sun that maybe changed the color, but instead of trying to understand it, I decided to use it in my benefit.

It's good to learn to accept and use your mistakes to your benefit. That's something I need to work on.

I've seen your work and I'm pretty sure you're good at disguising your scarce mistakes as a part of your style. This was a shorter way instead of commenting each one of your artworks, so let me say I really enjoy your work!

Thank you!

The background was really fun to do because it was mindless. I didn't have to think about it. It was just 'darker here' and 'erase there'.
