Sharbat Gula Portrait Finished

Done!

Toned the eyes back a little.

I need some Hair and fabric drawing practice,
but apart from that i'm happy with it.

Sharbat Gula Portrait


First attempt at a portrait.

Sharbat Gula from the cover of Nat Geo.

Soft pastel, and pastel pencil on
Mi Tientes paper. A4

Her eyes aren't really that bright but I didn't have the right colours to darken them up. I like them like this though.

Still working on this one.

Kingfisher

Rachel Baker's Kingfisher.

This is the cheetah that I've been working on. As you can see it's not finished yet. It's going well so far
A3 Pastel Pencil, Soft pastel
on Mi-teintes paper

I drew this from one of Steve Hanks beautyfull water colour paintings. Shading still needs work, but i'm fairly happy with it. Maybe later I'll go back and finish the hair. Didn't want to spoil it.
