A tiny little pencil drawing: Mila Meter

Just had a few inches of paper in front of me, and out came this tiny little pencil drawing: Mila Meter.
Fun to sit and draw, without knowing what will come up.

Scratchboard

A technique I enjoyed as a student in highschool, still a very interesting technique.
A special board covered with ink and then scratched into, achieving fine lines that define the image.
Here, after many years, three tiny drawings.

Colored Pencil Drawings: The Swimmer


Colored pencil is a medium I have always enjoyed. It's interesting building up colors, either from light to darker ones, or even from dark colors to lighter ones.  Both techniques are possible.
I also enjoy erasing as I draw and build up tones, or I can create white with a hint of color. 
I love to swim and often swimmers are shown in my drawings and cartoons.
