Description Trying to level up my painting skill... I think I mentioned that's one of the things I'm trying to learn over in my tumblr ask survey... Anyway, I just picked random images that came up googling "smiling woman" and went from there. 40min-2hr on the portraits, depending.

Very pretty smiles! I like how you managed to capture the smile all the way through their eyes as well (:

Really great work!  I too, need to practice my painting. What program do you like to use and any pointers that you can provide?

These have all been painted in photoshop cs6, but I have no good advice here, I go in blind and flounder until I get something I like!

Check out FUNKYMONKEY1945 's gallery for tips on anatomy, as I am of no use here. :b

Thank you Ancalinar.  I appreciate that.  I'm use to colouring light to dark with copics and understand the fundamentals of painting dark to light but just need to practice, practice, practice. 
Cheers!

Your floofy hair fetish is one of the most beautiful things about you @.@

Pwar realism! I like the subtle rough indication of the hair. It's nice because it leads the eye around the focal point. Keep up the amazing work!

Thank you! It also disguises the fact that I didn't work on the hair all that much... >>
