Description For

Many thanks to for giving permission to use this wonderful pic


I learned a lot from this drawing.

I started off too heavily with the eyelids and I used cheap pencils which left little bits behind when I tried to blend.
Once I started the grapes, I used more expensive pencils, which I hate to admit, were better and easier to use.


A4
Coloured pencils for eyes
Pastel pencil for the first layer of skin.
Caran D'ache coloured pencils for everything else.
Pencil eraser

Thanks for looking

I'm liking the color scheme in your drawing even more then the original photo. The darker somewhat blueish tones in the green create much better contrast and the attention is drawn straight to the eye in your drawing. Beautiful work

With this reference nothing speaks against strong colours, so I actually really like how you have drawn the eyes!
The hair is very eyecatching too!

Angela,.........is excellent !!! I like its vivid colors !!!
After this great effort , it's a shame that you cannot taste this delicious fruit , only worthy of a Roman emperor.
Or in your case, of an empress!!!!

Now i've counted them more than once and i'm sure there's more than five here I quite like how it turned out in the end. It's wonderfully stylized, like me you went more illustrative and it looks great
