Portrait of artist hippyofdoom (United Kingdom)
Added on July 26, 2006 14:58
Pencil



I'm so glad to have this finished! Drawing the initial sketch was so problematic, that I tried to draw another picture of her three times, but that was more problematic than this! She's such a beautiful woman, but bloody hell does she have a weird face that's difficult to draw. It was difficult enough to find a decent image to draw.

Anyway, despite all those problems, it's probably the most accurate to the reference of my drawings so far. Don't know how I managed that! This took about a week, which is average timing for me.

I used:
- 4B Derwent Sketching Pencil
- 8B Mars Lumograph Pencil
- Eyeshadow applicators for blending
- Kneadable eraser
- A4 paper

A fantastic effort on your part and worth it of upmost praise. This actual image comes from Down To Earth 1947. She was never most beautiful.
