Artist's Comments

A portrait this time.
Pencils, reference photo.
I kinda suck at fabrics (among other things)... suggestions?

...my only real issue is the harsh outline of the lips...

Yes, I think your right... I updated it, do you think it's better like that?

Hi Lucrece. I think this shows improvement. You have good detail in the hair and I do not mind the fabric the way you have represented it. The two eyes do seem a bit different in size though perhaps that is true to your subject. I do tend to get hung up with symmetry.

Well, what would be the point in asking for critics if I don't at least consider them ? :) And your's was a good one, I thank you for it.

Thank you very much for your comment ! Yes, I can see my drawings improving, it's very gratifiying even though I'm very far from satisfied. I think I agree with you about the eyes, it was like that in the model I had (at least that's what my measurments said ;)) but somehow it's a lot more obvious on the drawing. I tried to improve it but I was even less satisfied with the result :(

Yes it was like that for me in the last drawing I put up if you recall. I let the photo dictate what I was doing instead of letting the drawing be itself.
