Description Another drawing from a reference in gallery. Please have a look if you like unique and beautiful photography, he's very inspiring!

Materials:
A4 Extra Smooth Bristol
Graphite (HB, B, 4B)
Erasers
Tissue
Tortillions
Caran D'Ache Pablos
Acrylic
Time: Somewhere around 12-14 Hours

I suck at drawing hair and I chose this reference not only because I love the photo but I had to try harder with the hair. I dont know what it is, I just cant do it very well, but this one is better than most ... hurrah
I changed the butterfly from the reference image just so it would have a little body.

It looks brilliant!! The eyes are just perfect. I mean...wow!
And the lips and the butterfly are amazing. I love that the colours aren't so strong (I don't know how else to describe it), it works really good.
And when I keep in mind that you "suck at drawing hair" (your words not mine) I would also say that they are also really really good.^^
No seriously, it is a tough reference but you pulled it off perfectly.

Aw, thank you, I'm glad they look okay, I went a little overboard with the colour pencil and had to resort to acrylic paint, so I was worried, but now ... i'm happy

This is wonderful!
I do not know what you are talking about when you say that you suck at hair, I can't see a thing wrong, maybe to a professional eye, but to me it is utterly perfect.
The whole image has a very mysterious feel to me. I love how you used purples and blues with a primarily black and white piece.
I love it
