I made a drawing in front of the mirror as a result of a sudden urge to use the sketch pad that I bought last week. I'm training myself to use one stroke in drawing at the same time building up my patience to stand in front of the mirror without moving. There's a big difference with drawing from imagination, drawing from a photo reference, and from a live person. It is way harder to do it live. If this is another person in front of me, I would feel pressured because I would be more concerned about how long she'll be standing there. Much better to do it myself, I don't complain anyway :p I did this for an hour.

I only used HB, B and 4B pencils cos the stores here ran out of pencils. :( Or I probably just didn't look hard enough. :p

Face is kinda weird. Arms are kinda big. The other nipple looked kinda funny.
And I hate hands and ears. :p
