Drawing Me

So I've begun reading through, and completing the exercises in, Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain by Betty Edwards. The very first exercise is to draw a self portrait, a face from memory, and your hand. I like to think two out of three ain't bad. I'll continue to attempt the third, but I won't show it until the face actually resembles a human. As it is, you're lucky to be viewing the wanted poster style self portrait.

I realize the eyes are a bit intense, but mine are very hard to draw because they are such a dark brown. I think I was a bit too honest with the other "features" of my face (read "wrinkles").

Moving on...



Much happier with this lovely hand. Yep, that's mine...I'd recognize it anywhere.

Thanks for stopping by!
