Tree and bushes

 



Trees and bushes are my weak points.

" if only you earned more dad, I would have gone to school by school bus and not public transport.  I could have saved time which I could have used for more studies and could have managed a better course in a better college!!"

The way I draw my portraits

 




I took a normal A4 sheet. I drew a head of eyes, nose, lips and outlines for face and hair.

I took the three poster colored jars.

I mixed light brown and yellow and made a watery mixture. For lighter tones.

I mixed light brown and red and made a watery mixture. For darker tones.

I painted the face with the above. I had now three distinct zones in face. Blank, lighter tones and darker tones.

I allowed the painted face to dry under fan. About 10 minutes. 

Then I used lighter reddish brown, darker reddish brown, lighter brown and darker brown Mont Marte skin colored pencils.  I shaded suitably. 

Then using black Mont Marte skin colored pencil I shaded hair.

Then using red Mont Marte skin colored pencil I painted lips.

That's all.  Thanks.

Mobile stand I recommend

 



I recommend the mobile stand that has been fixed on the small table. This is the mobile stand I use for drawing my portraits.  And not the mobile stand that is lying on the table. For drawing portraits using DaVinci eye app. 

Experience comes useful here.

Permit me to ask a question myself.  What is the drawing that I want to practice in recent future?

Cartoon drawing.  Man in motion. Lou Darvas. Scott Harris lessons.
