Midterm finished, woo!

It is done. Marvel at it's marvelousness! I can't hear you marveling!

...

I'm sure you can compare this to the earlier sketch I put up, so I won't insult anyone's intelligence by critiquing this one. However, leave feedback if you want to!

And I just want to thank the sitter (who shall remain anonymous, except to those people who recognize her).

Midterm project, oh joy

So, midterms are here, and it would seem that I only have one midterm this quarter. This makes me terribly pleased with the universe.

This is a sketch, fairly complete, of a friend of mine - who heroically allowed me to take pictures of her. There were a couple which would have worked well for this project, but I had to chose only one.

The project is just your basic "draw a face using pen strokes" assignment. I'm using loose cross-hatching. I'll be damned if I do another stippling project. I'd rather set myself on fire, really.

But since I haven't set myself on fire (yet), I should probably add that I used Photoshop and my beautiful, lovely, wonderful Wacom tablet. As I said in my write-up for the assignment, I feel more confident using Photoshop. Besides, part of the assignment was to trace the image, and I don't actually have access to a good preinter. Or a light table.
