Yo! Me's back. This time I just found this caricature blog "out of the blue". It's called lovetodraw.wordpress.com I was just 'floored' at how amazing some people can really be. I think painting is the most fun. But I seem to forget exactly how much time I logged into this piece. I really need to make a habit of timing myself. I mean, rarely do I have those days where I can just sit down for a straight 2~4 hours and just focus on a piece. So I do need to start logging my times so I can actually find out how long it takes to finish a damn painting! This particular blog itself is in another language but they had very useful step by step tutorials on how to make digital caricatures. I'll probably attempt another one not too long from now. These are really addicting.
As for this particular piece, particular parts that I learned from painting this were how could I get a particular reflection on the glasses and how to go about creating hair. If you notice on this piece, I don't paint every hair strand but just on the outlines of the hair clumps I've grouped together. Does that make sense?
Anyways, I hope that with every painitng that I do I will be able to challenge and learn something from a particular painting.
