Going Big: Exploring Larger Faces in My Sketchbook

Face Sketch by Ralph Contreras

Challenging Myself to Draw Bigger and Bolder Faces

I recently completed a few new face drawing in my new sketchbook, and I wanted to challenge myself by using the entire page for one face sketch. Usually, I fit around four faces or heads on each page. So it was a challenge for me to fill the entire page with just one face.

While I strive for accuracy in my sketches, it’s important to note that my sketchbook is all about capturing and expressing creativity, rather than achieving perfection. So, I embraced the imperfections in this drawing. Her eyes may be slightly oversized, and her lips a touch too small, but overall, I’m still very happy with the outcome of this sketch.

As with many of my sketches, I found the original reference photo on Pinterest. It’s an incredible platform that provides a wealth of inspiration for drawing.
