Pencil Portrait, Different Style,

Charlie · Oct 19, 2014

I did this about forty years ago!

For no other reason, than to see if I could do it

I don't even remember what pencil I used ! Probably a #2.
That is an Old Fashioned Water colored Photograph I took it from :pencil:

A very long time ago I tried coloring black and white photos. The photos came out very good for my limited experience. I used Marshall's Photo Oils. Try searching for them on Amazon or Google. Give it a try, its not hard and the results are quite good. Probably will not work with a glossy print. Use a portrait paper for best results.
