Cooper, Addie, and Rio portrait in progress 8

A dark blue blue pencil flipped out of my hand while I was working on Cooper’s head and landed point-down on the mountain. Damn.

Don’t worry, a sharp x-acto knife point will flick that out. It’s probably gouged into the paper a little. (Just from the weight of the flying pencil.) But I can fix that with a little touching-up with pale-pink pencil. Prismacolor pencil is wax-based and the wax that holds the pigment will actually fill in that tiny gouge.
