Well, nearly at the end of May and the seventh month of portraits. They are starting to take up quite a bit of room on the shelf, stored in plastic wallets.
Twenty-third and twenty-fourth are left hand and right hand drawing  respectively.

Not much to say about these apart from on the eleventh when I was feeling really fragmented. I think it shows my mood very well.

this last one is deliberately faint, the pencil I used was grey and I just don't feel quite here today.

Happy Beltane and the first portrait of May 2015 for your perusal.

I can't quite believe that I've been doing this for 6 months now.
There are still observations that are wrong, as with the spacing between eyes and nose... a lot of mine are too far apart, a common mistake but one I should have moved away from. Possibly because these are quick portraits but maybe I just have to pay more attention.
