L'innocence



It took more than a month for me to draw this sketch.
Guess what, when I assumed I had completed the sketch the first time, I had missed the girl's right eye which is hiding under her ruffled hairs. All thanks to my friend, for identifing this at the first place and for a few of her valuable suggestions.

The soft caress innocent smile of the girl appealed me very much when my cousin sister recommended me to try and draw her. Everything about this picture, her smile, her hands, her hairs, her sweater, her skirt, the aluminium vessel with stains of carbon, the angle of the wooden lid, the position of the kettle was picture perfect!. After one and half month of lead going inside the sheet, here she is.
