Son's Girlfriend

Still in the mood to draw people and one I hadn't done yet as far as family portraits, I worked on this one yesterday and the night before.

Gouache brush

My favorite part was working the hair.  She has black hair with the ends colored in a light blue.

As I post this, I see areas I could adjust but for now will leave as is.  The family loves the results but of course the critic inside me can always find things I could improve on.  :-)

Madison's Friend, Brooke

One of my granddaughter's closest friends just had surgery and the idea hit me to do up a portrait drawing.  I wasn't quite in the mindset for color so I worked her in pencil only.  I may return at a later time and do this again but in color.

Catching Up with a Few of My Latest Drawings

Been a busy few months and only now trying to catch up with my blog posts of drawings I've managed to accomplish.

My sister in law's granddaughter, Sophia - couldn't pass up drawing this expression.  This little angel is a year old.


 
And I worked this portrait drawing of my husband with one of his expressions I absolutely love.  


This is an invasive weed we have that we thought was under control but has started popping up all around our yard.

Graphite sketches of a few shells I have in a basket.  Was in the mood to grab a pencil and my S&B Alpha sketchbook.
