Self-portrait.

draw the self-portrait of your self
Today's class was in BarnYard. The main goal of this class was to be able to draw self-portrait as well as a portrait of others.

Task 1. Drawing Self Potrait:

Started drawing self portrait from the sample picture of myself. This was of 10 minutes task and mine on still needs to be finished fully. Here I've encountered some major issues with jawline, neck and eyes.

Task 2. Drawing portrait sitting besides

This is the portrait of Emma which I made by sitting beside her. For these types of portrait, Firstly, I like to draw some straight lines and placement for body organs and later draw them in detail. My goal is to draw consistently to become better every time. My current problem is that I tend to draw some time good and sometimes bad.  Which means  I need lots of practice.

Task 3. Manipulating your self-portrait

For this task, I simply used Photoshop Liquify tool to adjust some areas of face. The tool can be handy for retouching images. for the ordinary picture, we should be carful while retouching, we don't want to make it look unnatural and fake, slight adjustment to the tool properties helps a lot.

But for this particular task, It's ok.

This one can be a good example for this task.

Task 4. To draw someone face again.

The following one is the final version of the drawing which I did under 10 minutes.

 I was just exploring to come up with some cartoony style character. and I end up making this one.

Summary: Today's class really helped me to draw a real-life character on a Wacom device. What I realize is that I need to be practicing this sort of drawing most often which could be handy for next semester projects.
