Portrait in digital art

Reflection

I was inspired to draw this by looking at photos.

I thought about drawing a person in a hat at first, but this didn't go as planned, so I resized the drawing, and drew a better version of the picture.   I decided to draw him in a bandana instead.

I enjoyed designing the picture, and I also enjoyed drawing the face, and perfecting the picture.

I do find it difficult to get proportions right, like getting both the eyes to be a similar shape and size. It's also very time consuming to complete the drawing, so I spent a long time on the drawing. Colouring it in was quite simple, but finding the right colours was difficult, because sometimes the colours clashed and it didn't look quite right.

Now that I have completed the full photo, I am satisfied with how it turned out.

I asked the participants to draw the subject, before I had taught them anything, so I can even better understand their skills, and help them based on their ability. After I asked the participants to try out drawing, I began my explanation of how I draw an eye.  My aim was to pass on the skill that I had previously learned and to encourage their own creativity by encouraging each participant individually to build on their own skills and not just cop...
