In February 2009, when this art blog was still dormant, and when I was still active in a joint-blog called
Rainbowbox (which is now dormant), I sketched a new friend I had made named
Carol. During that time, I was not into portraits yet, and most of my drawings were rather manga style. And then in March 2009, I started experimenting with portraits and drawing faces a little more seriously. I sketched my
Carol again, and it was the 3rd time I drew portraits, and they were all in larger sizes (bigger than 8 x 5").
Now in 2013, I thought it'd be fun drawing drawing her again but in miniature sizes with different expressions :)

And I just realized that I've been doing portraits for more than 4½ years now.
Happy New Year!
