Pencil Portrait for My Subscriber‪@swapnkari‬

This is one of the most special portraits I have ever made ❤️ This reference photo (screenshot from his YouTube channel ID - 25 Sept) was sent by a lovely subscriber from another country. He asked me to draw his profile picture and I tried my best to make it as realistic as possible. Look at the reference vs my drawing - I tried to capture the same soft expression, the light on the hair, and the sweater texture! MATERIALS I USED: Graphite Pencils - 2B, 4B, 6B, 8B Charcoal Powder for dark background Charcoal Blender & Cotton for smooth blending of skin and background glow Process: I started with light 5B sketch, then slowly built layers with 4B, 6B, 8B for hair and sweater details. The glowing background was created with charcoal powder blended with cotton. A heartfelt thank you to my subscriber for giving me this opportunity. Art has no borders!
