Portrait Pose…recognizable



I expanded the mouth…a hair wee bit.  And I tried to imply strands in the hair.  All different colors, all different shapes.



I am not comfortable with hair.  I feel clumsy replicating it.



Pulled out my exacto knife to create hair strands in the colored pencil wax.  Kinda cool effect.



Well…she’s not quite finished.  She’s still very model-ish looking.  And….I still need to work the hair in her part and her crown.  The hand passes, but could use a little more work as well.

And ….most likely…knowing me….To finish it up….I’ll pull out my extra-fine microns to clean up those edges!!  Haha

  2. I LOVE the wispy feel of the hair and all the different colors you used. Gorgeous! Can't wait to see it when it has your 'Finished' stamp of approval! Hugs! deb
