Feb 19th: Graphite 3/4 Face #2

Today is one of those rare, special days when I'm caught up on my posts. And the peasants rejoiced! So, as I'm currently in a place that I couldn't bring my watercolors and such, I worked on my 3/4 face today. I fixed A LOT. Mkay, so I started with the eyes. Yes, the one on the left was too low. I basically took the picture I'm drawing from and drew lines all over it. I drew a line from the corner of the eye on the left to the corner of the mouth... and measured everything like that. Before I was eyeballing it... and it shows. So on the right is me erasing things and fixing the eyes.

The mouth was also moved up. The chin elongated. The forehead scaled back. The skull elongated. The pupils fixed. It was almost like starting over today. However, when I look at how the drawing was this morning, and what it is now, it makes me really happy. It's looking like the actress! Who'd have thought? Now if only I could figure out how to draw without having to go back and correct everything! *sigh*
