"Lizzy" Pencil Sketch

2004

Another attempt useing only a pencil to try and capture those Mandela features. Pencil is tough going for a mouth painter, you are limited to a perpendicular[90 degree] angle. No smudging or thick lines and the pencil very easily runs in the previous lines troph, so I got to do hundreds of soft lines.

 A portrait but in pencil sketch format of Lizzy my caregiver.  Pencil sketching is extremely difficult for mouth painter's because the pencil approaches  the paper at a perpendicular angle. Dieter Marzinger, South African mouth painter who specializes in oil paint on canvas
