Portrait 10/11/12

I'm please with shading and colors, however I'm a little irritated with her crooked eye...but....what can you do? Better next time!
Her eye should look like this- (used Paint program to move eye) I'm thinking my eraser is coming out.....

2012 Drawing #2

I have to say that I'm super happy with how this came out! Although there is always room for improvement, I'm happy with my progression. I find the more I practice, the more confident I am in my drawing. I'm not however very happy with how her cheek shadow came out, it turned out a bit harsher than I intended-oh well! Any other observations?

Practice Makes Perfect! Art By Natasha

I created this portrait pencil sketch today, I must say I'm quite pleased with the end results! It took several days to finish (like 3). Usually it only takes me a day or so to finish a portrait, however I'm learning to slow down and get it perfectly bleneded. I tend to to want to rush through things and get it finished. So...slooowww down! : ) I also received two pencil sets for my Christmas presents, I've been using one set frequently. The other is a graphite set which I'm excited to start experimenting with.

Eyes Of Mystery

I'm fairly pleased with the results of this drawing, however I'm not pleased with her eye brows-practice makes perfect, right?

Portrait Art-Lilly

So I decided I should start naming my portraits, please introduce yourself to: Lilly!

Since one of my readers pointed out that my facial feautures (mainly the nose) weren't coming out correctly, I've been working on it. I have a hard time not putting lines. I want shadow, not lines! So it's not perfect, but I'm striving to raise my art abilities. I love how her skin tone came out! I picked up some Bristol paper, Vellum. And it was amazing! It blends oh-so much better! So, thoughts on this drawing? Improvements I could make on my next one?

Count Olaf-Unfortunate Events Movie

I'm very excited about this one! It came out almost exactly the way I wanted! I used B pencils (as per a readers advice) and it was much much easier to blend! Thank you! And the picture is actually better in real life than the photo.

Woman's Face

Acrylic Painting By Natasha Atkerson

My first "real" attempt at shading with paint. Paint is harder, you can't use a blender, and you have to be careful not to use too much, or too little of the shade color.

Art-Wood

I also played around a little with a sketch of some wood! I really like how it came out, almost like wood. But it could be better...my nail stinks....

This woman is also...nobody! Just from my imagination. I wanted to practice eyes a bit more, and I'm quite pleased with the result! I think this is probably the best eye I've done, it feels more life like than the rest.

Lady-05/2011

Nobody in particular, just a lady with a face and no name...

How sad, she has no identity...

Chocolate-05/2011

Please, don't be disturbed that I drew a chocolate container, I'm not obsessed...just passionate!
