Sunday Sketch

Hi everyone! I wasn't happy with last weeks attempt at a 3/4 view, so I tried again and like this one much better. (It was the nose I didn't like!)

I can't wait to start painting her!
And below is my painting I've completed for my youngest grandson's room:

I hope Levi likes it!!

The colour for your grandson is so perfect! That is special! The 3/4 angle is great - that is a difficult angle and your getting it! Wow! We haven't even tried - or i hould say i have not, the kids try everything :-)

Marlene said...

You are improving at that angle it is a hard one, I struggle with it also. The painting you did for your grandson is wonderful, he will love it.

Diane said...

Great pieces, Debbie. Those 3/4 views are TOUGH--Yours is right on--show us all when you paint it too!

Kelly said...

I like your drawing and your painting and I am sure you grandson will like your painting too - it is very colorful and fun.

Deanna said...

I think she turned out great. You can definitely see the improvements since your last attempt. Practice makes perfect, or so they say. lol

Can't wait to see her all painted up. I'm sure your grandson is going to love his room.

Hi Debbie, this is a perfect sketch. I love that you try to capture someone from different angles - I need to do more of that.

LOVE the painting - your grandson is so lucky!

Smiles and have a wonderful week!
