I accidentally, actually alarmingly woke up early today because I heard water dripping. And that is the most effective alarm ever!
But it’s been like 6 hours and I haven’t found anything like that yet.
So I got a few things done and then I was just missing pastels. The only inspiration in my head was color red. I had to do a portrait with color red.
And then it began..
First of all tinted the paper red..
Then did a very rough sketch (forgot ears again)..
Then made those eyes.. because that’s what I know best..
Then contouring. Girls love it..
Lipstick..
Some more make up. At this point my back started hurting and a disaster struck. I was trying to dust off charcoal and it all came over the face. But there’s no art without disaster so I lightly brushed it off with a makeup brush.
well.. moving on
I defined everything and added a background.
So, here’s final result under different lights.
I still can’t call it complete there’s a lot that can be done but I was tired and ok with where it was.
Realized by the end that I forgot ears..again..
If my work had a theme it would be “women with big eyes and no ears”.
That’s all for now. Please free to give suggestion your feedback helps me grow.
Thanks 🙂

I don’t think you need ears because of her long hair. There is a technique for drawing faces with measurement details, but you don’t need that, you really have a cool style x

I learned a few techniques to get proportions right but i realized the best for me is guesswork. Sort of intuitive process. Theres a channel “portrait art” on youtube the guy there sketches like this.
And since its charcoal vine, it’s easy to correct along the way.

Such a cool process and end result! This particular drawing doesn’t need ears so it all works out. The eyes are definitely my favorite part.

Yes, the eyes say all, in reality, they only 1/25 of the hight of the head. Ok individual differences excepted, but what does it matter as long they are expressive and tell the story.

Wow I would have never guessed that because everywherr i saw the draw the line for eyes right in the middle and then add some extra for chin. But yea when you consider individual differences thing change.
Yup. Art is all about expressing.

You have created a magnificent portrait! Talent must extend to great heights in your genes. (Does that even make sense)? Also, you are right about leaky faucets, or any kind of dripping sounds being an excellent alarm. LOL.
