Blending Technique

A small task set to us to practice blending techniques.

Using a chalk like brush we set the control to pen pressure so that the harder I pressed on the tablet the darker the brush stroke, then using the eyedropper tool I constantly changed the shade that I was painting with to smooth out the face.

I very much liked this technique and the brush, I could have gone over and smoothed out the chalkiness of the brush but decided that I liked the rough look and left it as it was.
