Nicole and Julie

Working on the Portraits today and yesterday. Wishing I Had more time to spend on them then just a couple of hours that are constantly interrupted. I'm a little rusty but I enjoy making them and also its good practice to keep things moving. My sister still has my camera so i wont be posting any pictures till at least next Monday. So far Ive done Nichole Cs portrait and Julies. For Nicholes I used some pencil and water color pencil and also some regular color pencils. Should have probably used a grid to make it more exact. The paper it was done on was just regular computer paper. Not the kind you want to be adding water too. Theres somewhat of a resemblance there but I think once all the rest are done I might take another shot at this with some actual water color paper and paints. That is If I can ever find where I put the paper that seems to have disapeared. Julies is done on water color paper that was reused from another little painting that was never finished. My son attempted to draw on it and gave up and left the paper for me to throw away. I reused it instead with some black and white acrylic paint. I like the idea of it and it reminded me of some old NSCAD portraits we had to do of ourselves in school. Not the best work ever but not bad for the amount of time I have to work on it. Teresa
