Captain Trevor

Captain Trevor is a very quick sketch that I did of a photo that I took of Trevor as we were sailing in BC with him. It is not as photo-realistic as other portraits that I have posted on this blog but it didn't take me the 20+ hours that those other portraits did. 
With this sketch I first toned my paper with graphite then lightly drew my outlines and erased the highlights and darkened the darks. I find that this technique helps to establish a 3-D effect quite quickly.
