Drawing - Coloured Pencils On Card
Description
This was done in the 1960's I just scribbled it trying some new coloured pencils, the outline is in black and dark brown and I mixed and smudged the flesh tones, carefully added gold tones to my scrolled hair, this is one of the first portraits I did with the scrolled hair, I cut it out and mounted on coloured card, my mother loved it and hung it on her living room door, it was there for a number of years

Thankyou AnnaJo yes she was very pleased, I received it back after she passed away :'( she was an artist too, but had difficulty with portraits, but she excelled with landscapes
