Colored Pencils
Colored pencils have always been really hard for me to do. I hate having a perfectly good pencil drawing then destroying it when I try to color. But I started to experiment with it and wanted to show a few of my successes.
Scissors

Here's my first attempt at realism. Colored pencil scrunchie!!

My sister is writing a book and wanted me to design two characters for her, so I took the risk and tried them with color. Here's how they turned out.

Next I drew a lifeguard with red hair.

I took a selfie and turned it into a more cartoony look, then colored it in.

I don't remember a time Star Wars wasn't in my life. I grew up watching the movies and memorizing the facts. When I played dolls with my sister we would add the Star Wars characters into our games. We even made a few new characters, along with a secret triplet of Luke and Leia. Annakyn Sywalker/Darthy Vader was the last triplet, who turned to the dark side. I will definitely draw her sometime in the future. But for now, I drew Kylo Ren from the new movies.

As you can see, it's still a working progress. But colored pencils are starting to become another one of my favorite media's.
