In this drawing of my best friend, I show her innocent appearance and playfulness. I felt that this angle best suited her because the exaggeration of her eyes, combined with her freckles, brings forth that innocence and mischief. I found it difficult to do her freckles but managed to overcome this by using lighter values such as 2H and H while continuously pulling highlights with a kneadable eraser. Other than this, I handled the rest of the drawing well apart from some minor difficulties.
