Debra, you should be proud of this one. An eye close-up is not an easy subject, every small mistake shows, and you kept going until it was finished. That is the part that counts most. Well done.

Hi Debra
Perfect! Your perspective, highlights, reflections and shadows are all well drawn. You deserve a “10”😊

I will get back to the lips eventually, but thought I would give this one a try. It was very different from the last one. Not sure about the realism though on my part…I think it looks good from a distance but not so much up close…

For the 1st try, it looks good to me.

Hi Debra
Your water droplets look so real. I feel that the veins in the leaf could be a little more pronounced.

nice

Debra, this is lovely 😊 The water droplets are the star here, they genuinely look wet. And for a first try at a new subject, you did really well. Don’t be hard on it.

Sorry I haven’t posted in awhile. I have been occupied with other course work. Thought I would get back into these tutorials and purchased this one of the hyper realistic lips. It was very challenging for me in the beginner category but also fun. I think I may try it again at some point and take a little more time, now that I have a hang of…

Glass of Water
I didn’t feel that I was ready for the final portrait, so thought I would give this a go. So here is my attempt…

Great job! The water looks so realistic. I love how you captured the light and reflections in it.

Hi Deb
Your attempt looks great. Very very nice.
-
very good deb👍
-
Debra, what a smart way to build your confidence before starting the final portrait. You’ve captured the glass and reflections beautifully. Keep using this same approach of finding the larger light and dark shapes first, then adding the smaller details. You’re more ready than you think. Well done!
-
This looks really good. You’re ready! The final portrait was easier than I thought. It looks hard but very managable if you follow the videos

Final Still Life
Here is my final still life drawing. I really struggled with this one because everything is so TINY and my hand shakes a little. I messed up the flowers so badly with the mono eraser that I just kind of came up with my own design because I wanted to go on to the rest of the project to see if I could do the other steps 😝. I ended up enjoying…

Hi Deb
Don’t beat up on yourself. It is all part of the learning curve. If you don’t get frustrated occasionally, you probably are not learning anything new.
Try building up SOFT layers of graphite with pencil or powder on scrap practice paper. Cut the end of your Mono Zero eraser off flat with a sharp knife. Then practice, practice,…

Hi Deb !
This is a good job ! I really liked the wooden texture details of the table.. Keep going 🙂1 -
Hey Debra! I actually love that you messed up the flowers and just ran with your own design. That is what drawing should feel like – adapting, playing, making it yours. The piece has real charm because of it, and honestly your flowers look great. Larry is spot on with the mono eraser advice too. Cutting it flat with a sharp craft knife and… Read more

I thought I’d share my before and after pictures of the eye. The one with the thick squiggly eyelashes was my first one. My hand really shook! Practiced forever on doing eyelashes before the second one…
-
Very nice Debra. This is a great way to develop your drawing skills. Your eye as a whole looks super. I think darkening the upper lashes would make the eye really stand out.👍
-
you can see improvement good job
-
Debra, I love that you posted the before and after together. It is such a great habit. Larry is right about darkening the upper lashes, and the real win here is that you stuck with it – eyelashes are tricky and you clearly put in the work to conquer them.

Hi! My name is Debra and I am new to the community. So far I have enjoyed seeing all of your drawings. Have been kind of intimidated to share mine, there are so many good artists out there… I really enjoyed the cherries drawing and it was the first time using indentation tools, so I have decided to share it. Let me know if you have…

Welcome! The cherries look nice. About the eraser, I think you will improve with more practice. I had the same issue when I started the course now I feel I have more control with the eraser.
You can make it flat with sandpaper, then use the edge to make sharp lines. Or you can use an electric eraser grind it on sandpaper with an angle, then…

Hi Deb, Welcome to the community.
Your cherries look very good and the leaf has very good detail. The only suggestions I might have is to make the cherries and the leaf darker with more contrast in values. Also make the edges of the cherries a little crisper.
Cheryl is right about the erasers. You can also cut a slight bit of the tip of the…

welcome, and the drawing looks great

Welcome Debra! So glad you decided to share – those cherries look lovely, and the indentation highlights give them a nice glossy feel. Do not let the talent around you intimidate you – everyone started somewhere, and posting your work is the best way to grow.
Cheryl and Larry already gave you excellent advice on the mono eraser – the… Read more
