I had to make some portraits for an art lesson, but being crappy, never took the photos to paint/draw. But it was all ok, because Witless let me use some photos that he had taken, and I painted them. Finally I've got my art back from school (about a year and a bit later..), so here is a little bit of it.
http://i457.photobucket.com/albums/qq300/e...e3/DSC00403.jpg If you ignore the hand, the elbow, the material and the mouth, then I'm reasonably pleased with it. This was a monochromatic study, so we took a primary colour then mixed it with white, greys and finally black, but I accidentally used pink as opposed to red for the first. Oh well. I quite like these, quite dynamic. http://i457.photobucket.com/albums/qq300/e...e3/DSC00391.jpg http://i457.photobucket.com/albums/qq300/e...e3/DSC00410.jpg http://i457.photobucket.com/albums/qq300/e...e3/DSC00374.jpg This is the title page for the project http://i457.photobucket.com/albums/qq300/e...e3/DSC00402.jpg My mum. Look at the iris popping out of the eye! Aahh!! http://i457.photobucket.com/albums/qq300/e...e3/DSC00421.jpg If you cover up the light half of the face, then it looks reasonably sensible, if you don't then it's just embarrassing. Also the background needs redoing to make it smooth. Also, I'm not sure why I'm yellow. Everyone was doing it in unrealistic colours so I just thought 'ok I'll do yellow'. I don't think that was a good idea, I should have just done it in true colour. Ok awesome. -------------------- Emma <3 James <3
"Music is a moral law. It gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, a charm to sadness, gaiety and life to everything. It is the essence of order, and leads to all that is good, just and beautiful, of which it is the invisible, but nevertheless dazzling, passionate, and eternal form." - Plato |

I do rather like these, especially the second one of Dave. I'm afraid I'm not arty enough to give you any constructive comments.
