Drawn along with the vid. I like 1710 charcoal pencil, but pity that it makes such a mess. I had to erase a lot - but the circles were off anyway.

Open to any advice.

Took another crack at “Nicolai”. First did this over a year ago in the summer, I believe. Graphite 2h and 2B and white chalk on toned gray strathmore 400 paper.
