Paul your comment has knocked me for six - i do like this one its one of my favourites - I cant seem to get away from drawing female faces - i wonder if this is my niche and I should have lessons to bring out my style further... what are your thoughts?
over 1 year
apologies for the delay, those were the days when we had no feedback to comments on comments!!
Do whatever you enjoy, just keep drawing, try different medium, charcoal, acrylic even oils, water colour, just play, experiment, I am self taught, the more you do the better, if you think you need additional guidance join a class, or you can always ask here, we are here to help ;0) Paul

thanks heaps for yuor commend - I really like this one myself - I just felt alive and fluid when drawing it - i like that my imagination has been sparked and I can actually draw things from the head - its so hard to do but when it works i feel really proud - still a beginner but finally happy with what I am trying to do

thanks Geoffrey for your words - I am on the verge of summoning up the courage to prepare it as a painting - once completed I will load for your comments - not sure of the colours for the faces though - I should take a leaf from Robert Doesburg and follow his love and talent in colour - have a great day Geoffrey

Wow... came across this drawing of yours! It is really fantastic! Very beautiful... and the angle is very interesting!!!!
And than you for your kind comment :)
over 1 year
thanks yaya I just wanted it kind of reflect a face or faces (as it turned out) as if you were looking in a hand held mirror and the angle seem to work. I really like working with pencil - its easy to do as the only time I get chance to be free is on the train on my way home from work- its pure escapism and I find that the faces always seem to come to me in 3's ---

another one that just came to me - tried to portray a looking glass mirror effect. I do tend to draw more than i paint as i can doodle and sketch on the train going home and i just destress from my office job - thanks you so much for your very positive comments - very much appreciated

Beautiful faces Jules and I looooooove those long necks. I'm very proud of MY long neck. Ha ha ha Paula XXX
over 1 year
Hi Paula or should I say lovely little giraffe

love necks on bottles and women the way they curve but are straight at the same time - didnt plan on this those they just happened - i really like this not thinking about or planning what you draw or paint - is quite liberating. thanks to all the inspiration and feedback from yourself and the others - love how we all feed off each other somehow -- have an amazing day with a weekend to come -

Very nice title and idea.

gosh did I ever say thankyou for your comment on my mememme drawing? sincere apologies if i didnt
9 months
This confuses me because the other piece I commented on didn't have these same darker tones? I see a slight different investment presenting outer reflections versus inner... Hope that has meaning that isn't mean?
over 1 year
its the same one - not sure whey he would seem darker in tones- is it because its the avatar? what you said is so correcti am still a beginner and as you say they look like they are out of the mirror as opposed to INSIDE it as a reflection... it wasnt supposed to be a reality thing however its just what i had in mind when drawing it
