A face exercise - initial sketch (Patreon)

This one was a simple study focusing on the shapes of the eyelids and nose.  I struggle with these two areas most of all, and still have trouble shaping out the fine features of the lower part of the nose, particularly the area shaded heavily in this sketch. That hard line isn't part of the anatomy but I draw it that way anyways. This sketch was about me trying (and failing) to make this shadow line work. You'll see more sketches of the nose and eyes soon.
