It's the holidays and i've started drawing again. But this time, with colour pencils. I've always wanted to try coloured portraits (i have drawn objects and animals in colour but never humans). So i thought i'd give it a go.
I started this one last night... and there is still a long way to go til i finish it. It's the colour-mixing that takes up most of the time. So compared to a black and grey portrait, a coloured one is a b**** (rhymes with stitch) to draw. So far, for this portrait, there're a lot of odd combinations of colours, i.e. black+light brown+purple for darker tones. it's looking a little weird at the moment. i think i need to tweak the colours and probably try to smooth-en some areas.
You can try to guess who it is, the answer is in the tags.
