Sam: An online portrait drawing session
Luca Indraccolo
In this session, Luca Indraccolo takes on another dramatic portrait, capturing model Sam from an extreme angle. Using Faber-Castell Polychromos pencils in Black, Van-Dyck Brown, Sanguine Red 188, and White on grey-toned paper, along with Staedtler and pencil erasers, he delves into the challenges of perspective and contrast to create a striking composition.
