Every bit does count

Charcoal

I enjoyed doing the hair on this portrait. Unfortunately, I think I aged her ... perhaps the mouth and chin area make her look older. I must have been off slightly; it could be only a few millimeters, but a subtle difference on a portrait can be all the difference between one person and the next or looking older...Finding a balance between accuracy and expression is quite a challenge.
