Description Kate Beckinsale

My entry for 's Kate Beckinsale art contest.

Done on 11x14 bristol vellum, with prismacolor premier and verithin colored pencils, a colorless blending pencil, and a white gel pen for the flyaway hairs.

This is my first finished drawing in colored pencil. This drawing tried my patience a lot. I had a hard time getting the skin to look just right. I had to ask for some advice on skin tones in colored pencil. It helped a lot. I think it turned out well for my first colored pencil portrait.

I'm really glad you like it so much. It was very hard working with a new medium, but I'm confident your picture will turn out great
