Hi people, welcome to my blog,
I'm currently continuing my art journey because I'm definitely not a beginner. But I'm not an active artist which I'm working on changing.
As a lazy artist it's really hard to actually stand up and make art. This time I decided to try my best and draw a portrait. This is one of the few portraits I appreciated the result of.
So this is the result
I'm not 100% satisfied with this BUT I say this as I'm prepared to improve alot. And I defenitely improved with this one if I check out the last portrait I made (I say this mostly because the portrait actually looks like it's my nephew)
Till this day I only made three portraits while giving it my all and this is one of them.
portrait of random cute girl I found on pinterest
I drew a random girl I found on pintrest. The first thing that is mostly wrong here is that the portrait didn't completely look like the girl I drew. The only thing I really like about this one is the CONTRAST it really made the portrait pop. I wish my nephew's portrait also had contrast but it was lacking in the picture I took of him.
This is the process of the drawing
To actually make the portrait look like my nephew I used grids. This really helped alot. BUT I also made a mistake while using the grids. I made them to visible and it looked kinda bad in person. It gave me trouble while shading also.
Anyways here's the rest of the process 🙂
I really enjoyed sharing this with everyone and I'm planning to make another portrait, maybe a self portrait, would be the first and I'm totally excited for the rest of my art journey.
Thanks for visiting have a nice day!

Wow... this is stunning!
I can totally relate with what you said about being a lazy artist. Honestly, as someone who dabbles in art, it can be quite frustrating to start but once you do, it becomes quite easy and the flow keeps coming. And when you're through with your work, the satisfaction and fulfillment you get at the end can be at times - overwhelming.
I really enjoyed these pieces, especially the one with your nephew. I'll love to see more of your work! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you,
And you are right about how it's easy when you actually start with the drawing and drawing random stuff that come up in my head is more fun drawing (while not using an eraser) then having a goal on what I want the end result of a drawing to be. Makes me be hard on myself when I draw.
But I'm glad you liked it. I'm also looking forward to share more.
Amazing and talented!!
Would love to see a combination of traditional art mixed with digital editing 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
