Just a girl from my sketchbook

The best advice I got on drawing faces actually came from a beauty consultant at a Laura Mercier counter. Of course, she was teaching me how to "draw" on my face to enhance my features. I took the principles I learned about highlighting and contouring my physical face and applied them to my drawings. :)

Anything that is light and bright draws your eye in...anything that is dark recedes to the background.

Some in-progress shots. 

There you have it. Just a girl from my sketchbook.


Happy week ahead friends!
