Drawing Anne with an E

I drew this a while ago, after never touching a pencil for a few years, when we finished the first season of Anne with an E.
I really loved the show and I am so sad the show has been cancelled :frowning: we loved seasons 2 and 3.
Hope you can recognize her a bit…



I know I need to up my game in the hair and well other facial parts, but I was proud of it :smiley:It made me do a drawing of my family for my mother’s birthday.
Tips are always welcome!

Lovely. I have always been afraid of faces and have two drawings from when I was a teenager of groups of people with no faces. They are kind of freaky. So well done!

I understand you can’t use colour with pencil but I think she’d be more recognizable with her red hair.

You should be proud, it’s really good! You have done a great job with shading the hair, and with the expressive face - I’m looking forward to seeing more drawings!

You did a great job! I especially like the nose. Those are hard. If you want a tip, don’t be afraid of going darker. Going darker in the shadows will add more depth.

Thanks everyone! I am glad she is recognizable. If you haven’t seen the show, please do, it made us laugh and cry and sometimes on the tip of our seat!
I am working on another drawing of my niece. Perhaps I should post WIP pics. I love seeing those from others!

Thank you ! Indeed! I don’t like noses and teeth!
I will use that tip! B6 is my darkest pencil. Perhaps I should look into an B7 of 8
