Sketching a face with pencil - QUICK SKETCH side view

In this video I’ll be quickly sketching of a girl in side view. I’m using a soft charcoal pencil on an A3 drawing pad and I’ll be practicing getting the structure of the face correct without losing the expressive style. This includes positioning the eyes, nose and mouth in the right spot without spending too much time with construction lines. The female I have chosen has really dark eye lashes and hair which contrast nicely with the lighter skin. The most challenging part for me is the eyes and not over doing them. So lets see how it goes!

I enjoyed just playing ur video and watching u sketch as I practice my sketching too~ but this looks great and my sketch is nowhere near this yet HAHAHA :')

May I ask why you prefer to go line to line without lifting the pencil off the paper? Is that a thing? Are you mapping the face through the shadows and highlights? If yes, does it help you get the proportions better?

Looking forward for more sketches 👍

You sketch well but I would think twice about calling this a "how-to" video. You give almost no information, it's just you sketching to elevator music. Just a thought. Nice work though.
