Drawing for Fun Again

        Hi again!  This year I've been in a drawing 2 class at my school, so I've been doing quite a bit of drawing there, but seeing as all of my art is still at the school until the end of the quarter, I am unable to bring you any of those pieces at this time. :)
        Today, though, I bring you a random drawing that I did because I felt like drawing!

Christina Applegate - image used here

        Nope, I don't know who Christina Applegate is, but I know Google does! In this drawing, she sort of reminds me of Nicole Kidman (not sure why) and a 40s housewife... though I doubt the earrings fit the latter.  :-) 
        Things I learned from drawing class:
  • If you look at your picture in a mirror, you can see all of the mistakes more clearly! 
  • If you take off your glasses (if you have bad eyesight like me - if not, squint), you can assign and check values more quickly.  
  • Do not draw with lines! Draw with values. (Although it's mostly well-known, it must always be repeated.) 
        I hope you all are having a good day, and will have a good new year!
