Description This is a drawing using my pretty girl friend, Anja-Amanda, as model. I wanted to capture her thoughtful expression and create her in natural colours. It's from a photoshoot I did with her early August. The light was coming in through the window very strong and created very little shading. I wanted to maintain that feel and keep it light.
I worked a lot on the colours and capturing the right expression.
I also tried making the hair look less glamorous and more natural.

Made with soft pastels.
30x40cm (12x16")

I have been watching your works for three or four years, and I can say - this one is my favourite from you!
The colours, hair, skin - everything looks so real and it has something more special what is comming through the drawing.
Maybe it's because this work is fully yours - i mean, you took the photo, you know the model and the drawing is yours.
AMAZING

Beautiful expresion. I love the softness of the face. Great shading and coloring. (As usual.) I love how you make the clothing look so silky and pretty. It's just gorgeous. Lovely angle too. I have trouble with angles like that. So kudos on that. It's beautiful.

WOW! When I first clicked on this, I thought it was a photo. I looked at the category and saw that it was a traditional drawing and all I could say was, "Holy crap! That's a drawing?!" lmao, I hope to draw like this someday. Keep up the amazing work!

Successful on all counts! Especially the lighting, it's very evident that she is standing in front of a large bright window. There is always a lot of expression in your subjects, that's a lot of what makes your work special.
