Yes friends. Meet the self-portrait in my sketchbook that drove me nuts for a couple of weeks.
It started well. I established some likeness at the beginning which seemed promising...
But of course, the facial tone was completely off and I had to work on that....
Once I looked less vampirish and more human, I discovered that the eyes seemed a little lopsided....
And then it seemed like the jawline was a little too pronounced. *LOL*
Guess what comes with practice is your ability to discover "flaws" in your work more readily. *winks*
I'm sure I will tweak it again some point in the future as I hone my drawing skills but for now, this one is done. At this angle, she does look okay. Hehehe...:)
She looks more than ok... she looks beautiful...
