Its been a while. Here is a new one that I have been working on for a few days. Its my first attempt at using graphite powder for the black background. I used a Lyra 9B Graphite Crayon and ground it down myself into powder. Worked really well. I also purchased a Strathmore Series 500 mixed media roll. The amount of high quality paper for the price - it can't be beat. I am excited with this drawing!
My dad and I found this oc challenge on Pinterest and thought it would be fun. https://pin.it/6rSLH0Z Here is the credit link and if anyone else wants to do it, it was really fun!
Also a crayon drawing piece of a man praying in a mosque.

A new character portrait I’ve created. I’ve named her Melaina. Made with pencils, blackwing pencil, water soluble graphite by artgraf and a water soluble graphite crayon by lyra.
I instantly saw her as a mermaid & had so much fun using all of my colored pencils! #pencilCrayon #coloredPencil #drawing #mermaid #moleskine #nat100k #drawinyourstyle @nataliadsw #drawthisinyourstylechallenge
Drawing done on A6 sketch paper 90 g/m2 using Uni pin fineliners, pen ink and green crayon. Started drawing pointy corners and areas to fill later and along the way I got inspired to do something similar to the ring of Green Lantern from DC. A friend of mine said the drawing makes her think of energy and fury.

About a year ago I became paralyzed after a fall and began my "wheelchair series" which became a cathartic release of my journey in this new body of mine. Also, crayons are seriously underrated.
