Two lovely ladies


Sigh!

Drawing people is most certainly my weakness. I used to ignore the existence of human beings, instead preferring to draw dragons and monsters – whoops!
If there is anything I can recommend to other wannabe artists, it would be to draw people. Seriously. Because you will not be able to escape it, unless you are very, very good and find a very specialised niche!
It’s hard, really hard – but the more I draw people, the more fun it becomes and the easier too. Learning how muscles work and how colours blend and that skin colour is fun –   although I am still a very, very long way away.  Light years, perhaps. But have to start somewhere.
First pic is a quickie from reference, second is from imagination…. my imagination needs a good talking to.

Not Happy

Hehe - first go with watercolour. I like this one.  Watercolour is rather terrifying though - so delicate and precise, unlike me.  Methinks a class is in order.
