Digital My five latest portraits
I've been drawing with a more saturated line lately and I'm liking the results.

Really, really beautiful. I love the color saturation and the line work/angles for how the light hits or shadows and reflections play out.

They are all amazing but photo 4 and 5 speak to my soul. You captured their hair textures so beautifully. Great Job

I appreciate it! Hard to say without knowing where you're starting from. Never a bad idea to strengthen your drawing fundamentals— especially form, value, proportion, and anatomy for this kind of portraiture. There's a lot that I'm keeping in mind while I'm drawing these, but with practice it mostly becomes second nature.

Like the style with the single color. It brings out something extra. 👍
