Friday Face OFF 1/16/2025

 

 Welcome To Friday Face OFF (FFO)
This is the place to show off your face art.
You know, ANY type of face, nature, the face of a flower, Photography, drawings, paintings. There just needs to be a face in your blog post.
 
Don't forget to join in for Sunday in the Art Room, "SITAR" Anything art. Please don't forget to link back to my blog. Thanks 
 
As you know I have been creating art more than usual. All I want to do is create. Wearing glare free glasses has helped with doing this. I started wearing them for the retina thing and I think I will continue to wear them. They soothe the eyes. Do you wear any kind of glare free glasses?
 
Yes, these are yellow tint but they work for me. 
 I have quite a few drawings completed and this week I'm showing a very strange colored pencil piece.
I guess I don't have any beginning photos. 
I get to this point. 

and the next thing I know I have it finished. 
I had to soften his face a bit. Shrink the jaw, adjust his eyes. 
He is definitely a strange looking guy. 
However, I like the colors.
 
Here are some AI pieces I made with NightCafe.  
 

 
It's time for some features.
 
 Maria A great gift and watch the videos.
 
Andrea Old photos are always so much fun.
 
OK, it's getting close, January 30th is the FFO day to show your challenge portraits.
The new challenge is to create a portrait of anyone you want. It can be your family, friends, actors, faces you find on the internet, or a perfect stranger that will allow you a photo to work from and to show with your portrait. You can work in any medium, except photography, meaning you can't just show a photo of a face. For this challenge you must create a face.
This challenge is optional, I still want to see all of your faces.
That's it for me. Now it's time to show me your face.

That is an interesting drawing. I wouldn't characterize as "strange", he looks more like someone who went through some hard times in his life. I like him, and I also want to feed him. He looks like he might need some food.
Only two more weeks for the portrait. I'm getting panicky...

The Rare One once gave me a pair of yellow tinted glare-free glasses designed for night-time driving. I never found them to be particularly useful. Your portrait today has strong features and such an intense gaze!
