C. Smulders

Ok finally! Lol - I said that with my last portrait, but these two words express exactly how I feel at the moment and exactly how I felt last time.

C. Smulders (as Robin Scherbatsky), Lead Project, 2010.

How I Met Your Mother, absolutely brilliant sitcom!

So... back to the point of all of this. To answer my hopes and expectations of my last post, no I didn't achieve what I had wished to with the cheeks. They are a tougher battle than I had thought. I've also come to realise I tend to do hair in the same way all the time, I noticed that when I was drawing her right side; so then I decided to put a little more attention and care with her left fringe; before completely giving up at the bottom right corner of the page, hence the flat patch of grey ;)

I seem to be stuck at the moment... stuck with who my next subject is. It's important to choose someone I won't get bored of, which might not make sense since I've already admitted that I abandon my drawings because I lose interest, but "that" is tedium from the repetitive aspects of eg hair! It's important for me to find a face that is mesmerizing enough that I find it worth drawing - why do I find this statement will come back to haunt me? ...Well it's true.
