Thanks, Linda. When I started, I wanted outlines only. But to do that was really tricky and I was physically incapable of doing it. So I'm resorting to other methods. With the darker skin, it fills the face and I don't want that. So I have to lighten it a lot to get rid of that. What I'm trying to do is leave smudging in the shadows of the skin. That was the suggestion from a friend who does charcoals. I've learned to use the eraser, but that leaves a strange tone to what was erased, and I don't know how to get rid of that.

This is a slightly different link than the one Wuligal gave me, but it's the same tutorial

Thanks, Sirius-one. It is lovely. She was so cute and quite unaware of my photographing her.

Thanks, Marijean. It is sort of a lot of work. And when you have spastic hands, it can be hard. But they are cute, and I think I have a market for them.
