I though it was of a relevance so I put it in here. Now onto advice: this drawing was made from a really really loose sketch. Allot of atelier artists and art school kids draw with very blocky lines and strong outlines for the figure. No mater how beautiful drawing might look it's usually flat, and generally won't be noticed by someone without experience. to draw an illusion is all about "lost and found? edges. You must always work with the space surrounding your subject to give it even more convenient "roundness". I am not talking about drawing all the stuff around it, just give the surface a tone as you approach the edge, instead of outlining it. Remember there are no lines in nature around our heads. The trick is to look at where the edge disintegrates into the background and keep them soft and how they rise from the background by getting a bit darker. Don't shy away from eraser and use it as a tool. To make an interesting drawing is to be able to engage in the process of reductive and additive together. The whole gesture thing, is to move your hand around and pratice control over the material. Controling pressure of your pencil is very important, and work with an idea of layers, or "building up" more concreate shapes from loose drawing.
