Tarja Minimal

as you can see in my latest posts I try some new drawing techniques at the moment :)
this weekend I made a "minimal" drawing of Tarja, means: only eyes, nose and mouth are drawn without shading
that is kinda hard - I drew the whole portrait first and erased the parst i didn't need
all in all that's how it looks:

I think it turned out quite good :D
I uses ordinary pencil and drew it in my cool Marimekko sketch book <3 <3 love it - the paper is great!!!

Hope you like it too :)

Past Times

It's my gannys 70th  birthday tomorrow!!! that means:
food, food, more food, cakes, cakes, moooore cakes, and more fooooood!! *happy*
I starved the last week just to be hungry enough to taste everything at the party muhahaha

of course I have a b-day present for my granny
it's a drawing from her where she was younger
My grandma told me that the colours were:
white dress with blue gloves a blue loop, silver shoes and a silver handbag (and the dress is good decollete for having a nice dance hehe)

cause the original photo is in black and white of course (looong time ago = no colour photos)

my granda uses to say: "she was the most beautiful girl at the ball" - everytime we talk about that pic *_* it's so nice from him to say that after all the years they are together now. isn't it?

I hope I could bring a bit from past times to present for my granny :) and that she is happy with it

done in: coloured pencil, aquarelle pencil

Being Sick

I was sick for the last 3 days .. not much fun..
but sometimes being sick is also kinda helpful even for my drawings they grow and grow *happy*


I went on with the Queens of Metal drawing:
Tarja looks like Tarja now and is almost done - and today I did the sketch for Liv Kristine (I'm really afraid of drawing her cause i did it twice and every try looks so really really creepy - so this time she has to look good)
i also tried a "new" drawing methode - well for me it is new -
I only own Aquarell-pencil but now I use them like aquarell-colours means:
I draw on a scribbling paper a blob of the colour i wanna use, then i put the brush into water and absorb the colour with it - so you can use the pencil almost like normal aquarell colours :)

here you can see how far it is now:

 I'm kinda happy with the results so far :D
hope you too ;)
