Hi Ian, you have created very good drawings, the first one I like the tired eyes and the lips for me looks like he experienced so much, you paid great attention to the wrinkles on face and neck.

The other one even though you said that it was a quick sketch but first this position 3/4 turn is one of the difficult as you need to be careful with eyes, their position, angulation and especially in drawing lip in this position requires a lot of precise measurement. Everything in this portrait is very well done.

I hope with new set of pencils we will see more work from you, of course in between your Art classes
