I think this is a very good likeness with a strong sense of personality and all that your skin tones need are a little warmth (okay you know me enough by now to know I'll be honest about these things I think!) - they are a little pinker than they need to be for Asian skin. I don't know how you manged to do this on such a tiny piece of paper tho!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05394200634221634534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3114458486830993270.post-21094238353396664062010-05-31T23:52:19.158-06:002010-05-31T23:52:19.158-06:00Love the portrait!

Turns out your portrait no. 3 is awfully close - excellent job! It's fun now knowing what my long-distance partner actually looks like. [PS, I actually penciled in (yes, penciled - I'm nervous - don't want to screw it up) our joint page. I'd hoped to be further but, well..]<br /><br />Your portrait of Ujwala is excellent. Very, very good likeness (judging from the photo). And the skin tone is great. What I love is the shading, and how the face is molded. You've added more values this time to the face then I remember seeing on any other in the past to wonderful effect. <br /><br />Excellent job!!Dan Kenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13130079803891606515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3114458486830993270.post-54271137107206465312010-05-31T20:42:32.100-06:002010-05-31T20:42:32.100-06:00Your sketch portrait is fabulous!!!

Tighter yes, than some others I've seen but if that is your style right now it's best to accept it and still work on the portrait part. Later you can try loosening up.Timareehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15769047120660859743noreply@blogger.com
