Hi everyone, sharing with you today a pen and water color portrait drawing of an old man.
I was drawn to his unique expression and the way his wrinkles form in his forehead. I like drawing older people for their very expressive faces! Their eyes tell you a lot about their personality and every wrinkle has a story.

With this portrait I tried blue biro pen which I don't usually do and added green biro and a little bit of green watercolor to make things a little bit more interesting. I don't know about the green, in future I may have only done it around the eyes as that is the main focal point.

Materials:

  • A4 paper
