Graphite Souls: Anne & Scarlett Portrait Study

Hey, Liketu family! Today I wanted to share a couple of quick sketches from my personal sketchbook. There is a unique magic in trying to capture the essence of a face using only graphite lines and soft shadows. ✏️📖

This session features two of the most iconic actresses of our time, each bringing a completely different energy to the page:

Anne Hathaway: Capturing that sweet, nostalgic look from her early days—elegant, natural, and timeless. 👒

Scarlett Johansson: Focused on strength and sophistication, with a shorter hair style that really highlights her sharp features. ⚡

My goal with these was to maintain that "human" and organic feel of a hand-drawn sketch, keeping the minor imperfections that make a portrait feel alive and authentic.

Which one is your favorite, or which one do you think I captured best on paper? I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments! 👇
