New Portrait

New week which means a new portrait, this week we decided to go on and draw a friend of mine and only this morning on my way to Borgo did i realise what this means...i need to do a really good job on this portrait considering he's a friend and will want to show other friends of ours, PRESSURE PRESSURE PRESSURE!! We picked the best spot in the room, right in the middle which gives us plenty of shadow and to my amazement this really helped me as the first thing i was able to pin down was the van-dkye-z and then from there everything fell into place smoothly. So far i have got in a basic contour and shadow pattern on the face, the last thing i was working on was the hair and he has very voluminous-crazy curles so i'm praying that this week i have a magical enlighlight and find the secret to mastering the art of drawing hair....for now: Day 1-

Day2

The portraits going smoothly for now, im on day 2 and so far i have in a basic lay in. Today i started hitting shadows and dark areas such as the shadow under the chin, i also added in the hair as i was told it would help me see the overall portrait and it really did bring out the areas which needed to be altered! I started bringing in the right hand corner hoping that it would bring out the gesture and angle of his head however it still isnt really working so tomorrow i need to definately bring in more of the right hand side!
