Step 1
I drew the left eye of the lady and shaded the eyelid and the eyelashes.
Step 2
I drew the right eye and the nose. I then shaded the black eyelid and the nostril.
Step 3
I drew the mouth and shaded it. The mouth is slightly open with a few teeth showing.
Step 4
I sketched the face of the lady with part of her hair overlapping her forehead, right eye and cheek. I also drew and shaded her eyebrow.
Step 5
I drew her ear and shaded it. I also shaded the hair on her head. Lastly, I shaded her entire face using a scrabble method.
Step 6
I sketched her neck, shoulder and collar of her shirt. I then shaded all these parts using the scribble method. I also added more hair on her head.

Thank you for being supportive.
This is such a creative approach to portrait drawing. The scribble shading adds depth and personality in a way that feels unique and bold. I admire how you maintained the structure while keeping it expressive. It’s a beautiful mix of control and creativity. Well done on this piece.
Thank you my brother.
