At last night's Life Drawing class we had a local high school boy dressed as a mime. He is a drama student and as part of their studies they are required to do some work experience outside of school.

This shows the end result of my night's attempts. Earlier drawings have been collaged onto the last drawing I made. I am not happy with the 2 earlier drawings & now wish I had not stuck them down permanently.

I am quite pleased with the top drawing. It wasn't until then that I felt I had managed to capture the shape of his features. I might do some 'selective cropping' later.

The main drawing is charcoal & pastels with some ink used on the bottom images.

You have captured this mime so wonderfully. I love the red in it. I agree, I do like it without the other two altho the black and white goes well with the red.
