Of Old Work

As I was going through old drawings looking for new inspiration, I came across these and thought they were worthy of posting in an old work sort of way...

When I was around 13, I was obsessed with mutated creatures. This one is a Zebspoealbirfin. 

More mutants

Here are some old faces. This is the first one I did trying to copy off of a real face. It is the actress who played Emma in the BBC production of... well, Emma. 

Another face.

This one is a more abstract one of a hand and a rose.

I found this old book of pictures I made... I was probably 10 or 11. It's about a bear and a crocodile. It was adorable.

It is so cute. 

This is one of my first faces. I drew myself.

Um. No comment other than I was (and am) pretty weird.

This makes me laugh. One of my sister and I's favorite pastimes was painting on magazine clippings. 

This one is beautiful. I did it of my stuffed animals when I was around 13. 

Of Faces, Comparisons and Palettes

I have been working on this drawing for a long time, so here it is! 

I am quite proud of it.

This is one I did about a year ago. I was comparing this to the one I just completed to see what my progress was. It's quite amazing how much better the new one is. 

This one I actually finished last night. It is acrylic on paper.

I was comparing it to this one, who was in a similar position. 

I also got this palette to use for oil paint. I am currently doing a still life which I will post when it is done.
