Satnam: An online portrait drawing session

Luca Indraccolo

Luca Indraccolo explores tonal composition in a portrait of model Satnam in this session, using a limited palette of three Faber-Castell Polychromos pencils—black, white, and sanguine 188. Working on mid-grey paper, he carefully balances light and shadow, refining the portrait with a pencil eraser and putty rubber to create depth and subtle transitions.
