This might be stretching the definition of EDM #6 'draw your favourite well-loved object or a childhood toy' but I really enjoyed this! Midway through I had to go out to get Alex some new pencils and a pad for school. (He'll be doing some interesting things now he is at secondary school. They have some amazing work on display at the end of year art exhibitions.) As I've discovered a new love of softer pencils, I just had to stock up! Well, those soft pencils go down so quick don't they?! And while I'm at it I may as well get some pads too...
Anyway, I came back and started using a B pencil on this and I loved that dark line! I can't remember when I last used a B pencil but it may be a long time before I use a 3H again!

Felicity, I really like the way you've captured the texture of the stuffed toy. Because the size of the scan I can't tell if it's the tooth of the paper that is giving it that velvety look or whether it's the heavy and light strokes you're using on it. Either way, really good job.
Any special kind of paper you're using?
This is absolutely gorgeous. Great work!
Felicity, this is wonderful! You are truly skilled with pencil work!
Soft pencils are awesome! I knew you'd like them. Try using a bit of sandpaper to sharpen up a point instead of sticking it in the pencil sharpener every other minute. It really helps me conserve my soft pencils.
This drawing made me laugh. Soooo cute. Great work.
