Face Sketching And Another New Class :)

As most of you know I love to sketch especially pretty girl faces. I wanted to share one of my sketches using techniques I learned in a new class with Jane Davenport called "Supplies Me". If you have an addiction to art supplies like I do then this class is for you! Each week she covers a new supply and incorporates it into sketching faces and figures. Yes, my addiction to online classes continues! lol

Face sketching has always been challenging to me but Jane shares a quick and easy technique for a face which I used on this girl. I really love how she came out especially the eyes. I was supposed to use colored pencils but went with graphite in case I needed to erase. I only wish I could paint this type of face as easily as I can draw it.

I am sharing this pretty girl today for Sunday Sketches. Stop by Sophia's blog to see all the great work being shared this week!

Wishing you all a lovely creative Sunday!

    I see that a few bloggie peeps are doing Jane's class. Hmm. I'm going to have to check her out. Thanks for sharing and loving your sketch. Her eyes are so lovely and captivating. Something I need to work more on.

    Hugs and happy SS!

    Hi Cathy, absolutely gorgeous sketch! I really love how you've done her eyes, have you tried starting a painting out with a sketch like this then painting over it?

    I also loved your paintings you did with your non dominant hand, I've never done this before what a great idea!!! I think yours turned out fantastic!!! :0)

    She turned out wonderful Cathy--I'm a little nervous of just drawing the face with the colored pencils too--I need to erase my mistakes :)
    But I like the way she teaches how to blend with the colored pencils---when you do it like she shows us--the colors turn out so creamy.
    P.S. Love your other face too from Katie's class!
