    Default Portraits and Figure Drawings


    Hey Ho!

    Here are some drawings I've been doing lately for learning's own sake.







    P.S.
    if anyone would care to tell me if there's a way to resize an image once its uploaded, it would be vary appreciated.
    So far all I can figure out is to just resize the image in Photoshop.

    Keep it up guys!

      I liked how you paint, but give a look at head structure and Andrew Loomis books, your heads are stretch horizontally and have some issues with proportions.

        Seems I forgot to get new comments by email...

        But, anyway, thank you for your advice. I've actually been reading through all of Loomis' books and must agree that they are superb. 'Fun with a pencil' is great for any new beginners and I recommend it where I can.

        Figuring out how to compose the head with blocks is something I've been working on.

        I should be posting some more stuff some time, and I hope I've made progress! I learned a lot about brushes, textures, mixing colors, etc. from painting these portraits.

        Thanks for the advice, and I'll be working on it!
