Hello folks how are you guys doing? So today I decided to post this work I created few minute ago, I almost didn’t want to post it but then again I said to my self if I don’t post how will people see my works. As an artist sometimes we get worried that our work make not be beautiful or good but there could be someone out there who will appreciate it.

So this is me posting a work I never wanted to post but i just have to do it anyways.
I titled this piece

The suit man

Growing up as a kid I tend to ask a lot of questions about my grandfathers and ancestors, and I get a lot of stories from my parents about how they lived in the village and how they even moved to the city. But while in the village they still dressed like they were in the city, I saw a lot of pictures how their different fashion styles that really got me inquisitive. It such a great feeling to be able to see such documented era on a black and white picture. So this piece is just an imaginary sketch just to juxtapose such feeling. I hope you all like my work ahahhahahahhaha.

Materials

Charcoal
Graphite
A4 paper

Progress

This was my first sketch

I started with the hair first, then added some bit of hatching on the fore head

I proceeded into shading the complete face, giving it a texture and pattern that I want.
