Welcome To Friday Face OFF (FFO)

This is the place to show off your faces or your face. Post any type of face from any medium. You can create it, or find it in nature, or even that face in the design of the

woodwork in your house. 

Human, animal, alien, or monster. 

ANY KIND OF FACE!

 

 I've been drawing and I feel like the ease of it has come back. Well, for me. I'm no expert, that's for sure, but I like the fact that with every drawing I get a bit better at one thing or another. LOL

 She started like this. 

She looks a bit freaky with no eyes.	OK, this is a bit better.
She has a reddish scar on her face.	Boy she has a straight back doesn't she. LOL

 

 

Here she is finished with color

 

And here in Black n White 

Do you have a preference? Let me know in the comments.

I found this tucked away in a sketch book. I did some revamping to it and now here she is. Don't ask, I have no idea why I'm drawing women with scars. LOL 

 

Here is something fun from my AI 

My son and his wife along with his daughter and granddaughters drove up to NC to have 4th of July with my daughter and her husband. I so wish I could have been there. As you can see in the photos my daughters health is not good at all. What ever your prayer system is, please remember my daughter, April.

My DIL, my daughter, granddaughter and great granddaughter	DIL and oldest great granddaughter
My daughter and granddaughter	grand daughter and youngest great granddaughter
SIL and her name is Julette they call her Ju Ju	She thinks she is all of that, too.
Eva my oldest great granddaughter and my son. She likes to be on S.M. with her friends	She is a tween and doesn't want to be around much. So not many photos of her. This trip.
This girl is all in charge.	My daughter was trying to get her to float and she thought she was, however her booty was touching the bottom of the pool.

 

Now for some features.

Trip to Coos Bay

 Hi Everyone!

Today we drove south to Coos Bay. Every 4 months or so we go to Walmart. Yeah, I know. However, there are items we use that I can't get any cheaper than Walmart.

Also, this Walmart was remodeled and we wanted to see how it changed.

Before we left I made sure I had batteries in my camera that were charged.

Also, it was a very overcast day and lots of marine layer. 

Traveln' south to Coos Bay.

Leaving Florence Hwy 101

As we leave Florence we cross one of the many bridges on the coast. It dose open to allow ships to go through.	A short way up the road is this over pass bridge. I tried to find out the history of it but no go.
Hwy 101 coast road is a much better drive than going to Eugene.	Of course you can never get away from road work.
This was to clear brush and tree limbs. We don't want any fires here. A very large portion of Or. is on fire.	There are all these little communities that have no names, and fall under the same zip code as Florence.
The main thing here is the ATV rental, the pot shop and a convenience store.	Then off we go into the marine layer.
About 12 miles we come to the town of Gardiner, that actually has a rich history. POP 248. A log and paper mill were here from 1963 to 1999. In 2006 the buildings were demolished.	Across the road is, of course water. In 1954 a plywood plant was established. Gardiner was formerly the site of the first international paper mill on the west cost.
Coming out of Gardiner, we hit the Smith River. (More WATER!) The building in the distance is a ship repair place.	It use to be a bridge building  company. It closed around COVID. Then reopened as Fred Wahl Marine Construction.

Behind the trees are big ships. Come winter I can see all the way in. I love the big ships.

I borrowed this photo from their FB page.  I would so love to work there, and NOT as the receptionist. LOL

 This is it for now. Next time we will head on in to Reedsport and then to Coos Bay.

Hope you enjoyed the trip.
