portrait sketch 01

This is the first serious attempt at drawing that I have made since I was a kid.  It was sketched in cheap pencil on a cheap pad while looking at a photograph on my computer on the 15th and 16th of October, 2014.  The model in the photograph is Lystra, sometimes credited as Lystra Faith.  Despite my fussing over every line and curve, this doesn't look much like her.
