Friday Face OFF FFO

 

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, AI. There just needs to be a face in your blog post, a link back to my blog and please use the image below. 

Thank you.

I'm writing this post a little bit each day. As well as trying to create some art. If I just lay down and give into lupus then it will over take me. I refuse to allow that.

Thank you for all of the well wishes.

 

All of you know I'm a self taught artist, in every venue I've explored. Just want you to remember that. 😁

I started this portrait a few weeks ago. Her expression with biting her lower lip was inviting for me and a challenge. This is the photo I worked from. 

I swear I took more step by step photos but they are not on my camera or on my PC. Must be lupus brain fog. LOL

Here is what I have.

Getting started. 

and the finish. The eye patch needs an explanation.  After I thought I was finished with the face I took a hard look and her left eye was huge and bulging out of her head. This is where you remember I'm a self taught artist. I thought, "Oh I can erase a certain part and fix it." Uhhh no! That didn't work for me.  I liked the rest of the face and didn't want to start over. So, I gave her an eye patch. Not as attractive. but it works.

My main goal was to get the lips right and I do like her mouth.

I have to remind myself that art is a learning experience. That with every mistake I learn something new. That we are all on different levels in our art journey. This is just a stepping stone for me. Ya know getting the eyes right. LOL

I haven't been on NightCafe much but here are a few faces.
