My current goal is: Make my faces and expressions with as few lines as possible.
Hello, here is my next quick expression. This is the way I go for the valuescale with as fewer lines as possible, by tone economy. Enjoy. Leave some great comments below!

You have some very expressive lines happening, and good variation in strokes. I would say though you might work a bit more on the value variation. You have a lot of very dark lines and a few lighter one, but your midtone game could use some love.

You say "as few lines as possible," but this looks like a very large number of lines... What would happen if you allowed yourself only 10 strokes?
Don't you worry none, Kim, it's a perpetual work-in-progress. Thanks for the comment.
