Challenge: 29 Faces (Day 2: # 4,5,6)

Here come 3 more faces for the challenge (and I am so behind)!

They are simple sketches this time. Again, these are miniatures that could easily fit into a stamp.
One displays how little I know about how to use properly watercolor. Who knows, one day I might end up learning this charming technique!

#4 Blue woman

#5 Regina

#6 Elena the beautiful (a portrait of one of Marina Bychkova's dolls... I have a fixation with them....)

 Thanks for watching!

    i am so enjoying your faces, sketches and simple watercolor. i also am learning how to play with watercolors.... sometimes i feel it is like a math equation. What to leave white, when to layer/glaze, do this first that next.... oh my.

    I like Regina 's hat. such lovely faces and they being so small, I think it's rather hard to get in details.

    visiting from Tammie's beauty flow blog. hope you have a sweet day

      Thank you for the visit and the message! It's nice to meet you! I like hats a lot...my problem after a few days from the purchase (so frustrating to be so terribly distracted!).

    I came here through Tammie's blog :) Your drawings are lovely and I can't believe they're that small! I find small detail so difficult!xx

      Hi Jess and welcome! Tammie is so kind!
      Thank you so much! I 've always liked working on small pieces, because they are portable and I usually draw and doodle while watching TV or hanging out with friends. Sometimes, though I think my eyesight will get hit hard one of these days! ;)

      Hi Uuna, nice having you here! I've always wanted to travel to Finland and Northern Europe in general: they are magical lands to me. Thank you for your support! :)

      Thank you Clare...Elena is a long time love of mine. I have coveted her for years. Actually it was thanks to Marina's work and the friends of the Enchanted Doll forum that I began drawing again and became more creative....
