(I made an error in this art. My rendering is below par. However,  my resemblance theory is working.  And working with Proportional divider.  This is my edge, I feel. Meanwhile I will improve rendering)

Ajay Devgan, bollywood star

First step

Using HB pencil draw Ajay Devgan from tablet image onto paper. I use proportional divider. I also use Andrew Loomis method and Asaro head method while drawing.  I try to follow my own method of resemblance while drawing.

Second step

Apply watercolor on face area and head. Oops !! Ear lobes left out !! Shall manage in third step with skin colored pencils. 

Third step 

Now shade the face with skin colored pencils.  Once the watercolor has dried. 

That's all.

Merry Christmas to all my blog readers!!

Taking a break

It is futile to aspire to become like Guan Weixing or Jung Hun-Sung or Sadashiv Sawant. Because in Ranchi I don't have that much of a setup.  

But I won't sit idle. I shall be practicing Asaro head from all angles. 

Till then. Bye !!

A new technique

 

I shall be mixing watercolor with skin colored pencils to get better results in blending.

How is the above rendering?

Attempted Watercolor Portrait

 

I am awed by the beauty of watercolor 🖼 in portrait drawing. I like them a lot. But unfortunately I don't have a teacher. 

Though I did watercolor portraits earlier,  this one is professional approach. I did three layers.

The subject is an arbitrary man.

Today I tried this one. I shall practice more on these types till I get confidence. 

And then I will attempt real faces.

Finalized color combination for a man and a woman. Most of the drawings I am planning to do will have this coloring.

But the journey is long. Draw from mobile. In proportion.  In resemblance.  Then watercolor like above. This is my immediate future plan.

Current Future Plan

 

My current future plan is portraits.  Both men and women.

Materials?

My Acer Windows tablet. Derwent Proportional divider. Camel Oil pastels.  HB pencil. A4 sized paper.

Difficulties?

I believe I had flavour in my portraits.  But portraits is also about proportions.  Mixing flavour and proportions is a very big difficulty. 

Time frame?

It would be a lifelong endeavor.  But I want to get rid of the difficulty stated above in 3 months. By March 2022.

Any other resources?

Internet.
