29 Faces: 28 and 29

Last two, plus a bonus...actually 3. After a month of black and white, here is some color, a drawing I made for Bella. Enjoy and happy March!



29 Faces

Many many thanks to Ayala for bringing back the challenge. As always, it has been extremely enjoyable to see the beautiful art, meeting new art loving folks, and practice freely, for the sake of exercise. I don't know about you, but I definitely need more of that in my life.
Thank you to those who visited and especially to those who left comments: you guys made my day every time!

See you soon!

  1. Wow! What a super ending to a whole set of gorgeous pencil sketches. I've just gone back to see them all and it's lovely artwork. You have such a soft pretty style and these faces are wonderful. Love the ending one in color too, very sweet!

  2. Thank you! Now I wonder if I will retain anything I learned this month and if I'll be somehow able to use it in my regular drawings...;)

  3. Apart from being so beautifully drawn, your faces always have such strength of character, and look like portraits of real people. The wavy-haired girl is lovely, and the tonal shading is perfect. What a great idea to create the drawing for Bella in a child-like vision that will mean more to her than any other kind of drawing would, so clever.

    1. Thank you Jez...sometimes Bella is so insistent on having me drawing for her and I don't know if I should indulge her or not. She takes out her markers, puts the in my hand and says: Car! or Boat! or Daddy! Am I interfering with the development of her own skills?
