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.
Now this next portrait I drew I have mixed feelings about. I see so many things wrong with it. If I feel this way, why show it? Showing what we think may be not so great artwork is vital because it shatters the myth of perfection, promoting an authentic human connection to it.
This is my brother Tom. I have never seen him without a smile on his face.
I started in on his portrait.
It started like this. 
Then to this. I think it was here I went to black n white.
I was shaking a white pen and ink landed on my paper. uuurrrggg...
I figured I could just draw over it.
I finished like this. I was putzing around with it too much and had to stop.
He has deep wrinkles by his left eye that I just couldn't get right. I lost the curve of his upper lip, and because of that he doesn't have a smiling face. By this time was not into drawing his suit. The things I do like about it, it is dose look like my brother, I really like how his nose turned out and (wait for it) his hair and beard. Yes, I said hair. LOL
I would like a do over on this one. It was a total learning experience and I would like to get right.
Here are a few AI that I do like.
Here are a few features
That's it for now.
Be sure to join in for
Sunday in the Art Room 
Joining with Gillena
Now it's time to show me your face.

I think your portrait is wonderful and I do see a smile! Beautiful AI, too - have a great Friday!
Happy Friday. His hair looks amazing.
I suspect that Tom will be very pleased with the result.
A greatful portrait of your brother. Well done. Thank you for sharing and for hosting. Greetings by Heidrun ❤️
Beautiful portrait and AI-Christine cmlk79.blogspot.com
...Nicole, so there's a Tom in your family too, such a nice portrait! I hope that you are doing well and enjoy your Memorial Day Weekend.
You really captured his eyes. I don't see the wrongs with this drawing. It's really well done. But you are right, it's good to show imperfections because every piece of art has some, depending on how you look at it. hugs-Erika
Such a great portrait of the man, Nicole. I'm always curious to see your Friday face post.
Nicole um trabalho incrível, desejo um ótimo final de semana bjs.
I think his hair and goatee turned out particularly well too! I find facial hair very difficult to draw and have it look realistic, but you succeeded! The glasses perched on top of his head look great too!
Ya dun gud 😎 as usual.
Magnificent portrait of your brother ~ you do portraits so well ~ Hugs ^_^
Wonderful drawing of your brother, Tom!
You definitely captured him.
Fun and imaginative AI art, Nicole.
Enjoy the weekend…
I don't know your brother, but I believe you captured his benevolent spirit in your awesome portrait. Peace, my friend!
Happy Friday, Nicole
Thanks for dropping by my blog
Much love
Your inner critic is hard at work, Nicole! Can you shut him up now? Your portrait of your brother turned out beautiful and I bet he would be more than happy with it. I do see a smile here - it's not only at his mouth, but in his eyes as well. What might have made this portrait more difficult is that the light is distributed on his face rather evenly and the shadows are not too pronounced.
I really like your AI images, especially #3 and #4. So well done.
Have a good weekend!
I know, we are our own worst critics, but I have to say, I think you captured your brother perfectly. You have learned to creat facial features and make them look real. I am jealous 😂 So, explain to me how he is black and white and his glasses are colored 😁 Anyway, to move on, I love your AI art. Do you create them with words or do you provide a picture? So it is Memorial Day Weekend and we have to celebrate it with our rediculous excuse for a President. But, do enjoy anyway :)

What a wonderful portrait, it looks fantastic. Of course, as an artist you can see the little annoyances that we can't see. Have a wonderful weekend, Nicole.
I like your portrait even if you don't. If you do it again you could compare them to see which you like the most.
Boa tarde minha querida amiga Nicole. O desenho do rosto, do seu irmão ficou maravilhoso. Os desenhos da IA também. Uma excelente tarde de sexta-feira e um grande abraço do seu amigo carioca.
We're always the most critical of our own work, aren't we? But you nailed it (again). But if you do a do-over, I hope you will show them both together!
Hi, Nicole. Running late, as usual, lol! Your drawing is amazing. I think we must be our own worst critics. I know I am when it comes to my own work. I always feel that something could be just a little better. Beautiful portraits all!
Some day is best to have your heads in clouds.
A really beautiful portrait.
I love the portrait of your brother, and what a happy soul he must be if he is always smiling.
the pretties are nice, Nicole.
I love your brother's portrait, Nicole. He is a handsome man.
Oh my goodness! And I remember when you said you couldn't draw hair!!! Wow Nicole- this is amazing. I think it's perfect as is.
Wonderful drawing of your brother Tom :-D
I like your brothers portrait.
I also like the AI creations.
Have a happy weekend.
All the best Jan
I really like the portrait of your brother,
wonderful,
you are evolving as time goes by Nicole!!
I think you did a fantastic job drawing your brother. What a sweet face he has.
Thank you for featuring me on FFO, Nicole. I am SO sorry I didn't play last week at FFO, but this is the first time I've been on the internet in a week. To be honest, I haven't been well, but I really don't want anyone knowing, so please don't pass that information on. I hope to be well enough to play this weekend, dear friend.
I would prefer you didn't publish this comment.
To be honest I can say from the bottom of my heart that you painted your brother’s smiling face so beautifully and fantastically 🥹👍
You indeed brought the image to life and smile appears like a sunshine 👌
He has an honest face and you were able to establish that too
Brovo and hats off to you and your amazing skills of drawing dear friend Nichole ♥️🙏
Dear Nichole I forgot to mention that your AI creativity is really amazing
This time I truly loved how you showed the interconnectivity of nature and humans ♥️♥️♥️👍👍👍
