Description For =ClefairyKid 's 1000 Watchers Celebration Contest .

I used a Portrait Stock Reference provided by the wonderful *Reine-Haru .

This is soft pastels and charcoal on Canson pastel paper. C:

Yes, I started my rainbow with purple. It is backwards.
...now I just need to wash the rainbow dust off my desk.

Very beautiful! Great work on the shading and I love the contrast between the bold rainbow colours and the empty background.

I hide from people whose only intent is to post unflattering photos on Bookface, yes.

If people are intending to take NICE photos, it wont bother me so much. C:

FlamerXMagofire In reply to ConnieCookiee [2011-08-20 01:10:44 +0000 UTC]

Won't bother you "so much"? So, it'd still bother you?

And both you and Indie are pretty, so I don't know why you dislike photos SO much

ConnieCookiee In reply to FlamerXMagofire [2011-08-20 21:01:55 +0000 UTC]

Because many people in our area take photos in the aim to humiliate the people in them

... Oh... that's a good reason... ... anyway, you could look for a friend or someone you think won't try to humiliate you (IF you'd like to try )

Holy feck that is incredible. I think it'd be incredibler still if the colours changed slightly more gradually when they got to the green yellow orange bit. They don't look as much like part of the face as the purple and blue bit. The profile and lines are super-amazing.

I thought so too. But I only really stopped to look at it after I'd sprayed it with fixative. I might try working back over it though, thanks! C:

You CAN.
You wont if you sit on your butt all day saying you can't, but if you practice, then you will be able to!

Look at this: [link]
Also, [link]

Go away and draw 10 portraits, still lifes, or whatever, and look at how you improve. C:

But imma so impatient and I want to be at the final frame now :<
Maybe I will try and draw some faces...

ConnieCookiee In reply to fishrar [2011-08-20 21:09:07 +0000 UTC]

The final frame? There's no way for art to be 'perfect' - it's so subjective. Even the best artists are constantly improving on their work, so there isn't really a 'final frame' you can aim to be at. You can only aim to keep learning and improving, as with anything in life.

Beautiful! Anything with lots of color is always great.
I've never really used soft pastels much, but I like how smooth they are! Maybe I'll get to use them sometime.
