What magic can be produced with a blue, pink, and white pencil? See for yourself during today's amazing transformation from flat black silhouette to sleek sculpted face by playing the video below!

If you're just tuning in, I'm creating a fan art portrait of Salem Saberhagen, a character in both the 90's series, Sabrina the Teenage Witch, and the current series, The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. I'll be giving away a print (possibly multiples) in a drawing at my booth at the POP Cats 2019 event in Austin, Texas. Come see me at table #152!
