My pencil drawing of a beautiful Nigerian girl "Adakirikiri"

​

Hi everyone,
Trust you're doing great?

Today, I'm glad to share my pencil drawing of a beautiful Nollywood actress "Adakirikiri". She's a talented young Nigerian girl making wave in the movie industry lately and she's also a musician.. I decided to draw her after seeing some of her movies some two days back. I know you'll be wondering why I didn't post the reference picture alongside as usual' Yeah! The reason is that, the work was more of imagination with the aim to portray her physical appearance not picture like image.

I had to dig deep in thought to visualize what her real life appearance would look like though I haven't met her in person. And it wouldn't have been possible without the availability of different references I could reach on her profile. I'm glad with the outcome of the portrait and I do hope you'd love it as well🥰

About the drawing:- After measuring and sketching the grid lines, I drew the outlines of the image accordingly using one of the references available. After then, I carefully shaded it drawing ideas from all the references using graphite and charcoal pencils on a piece of cardboard.

The process
