The subtle circle pattern is a nice touch. I also really like the uneven skin tone wash.

I wonder though, why no nose? Did she give that away too? Michael Jackson needed one. The thumbnails and progress pics are always interesting ... I like your first one, the snow man.Mardi Spethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09852218831221548814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2985854758369166666.post-37183121312313527682011-11-30T06:00:50.786-08:002011-11-30T06:00:50.786-08:00I agree different versions..making studies lets yo...I agree different versions..making studies lets you see your options. Great study of 'O'...like the fact you dropped her nose and emphasised her mouth...that shiney lipped mouth.Rod MacGregorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03414190406485872060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2985854758369166666.post-69469331607539284032011-11-29T22:53:27.114-08:002011-11-29T22:53:27.114-08:00Yes I do actually.

Occasionally, the first one is the best, but that's uncommon.<br />Thanks for the comment and question.<br /><br /><br />.Richard Ewinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09339718829457133353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2985854758369166666.post-30949458196011592062011-11-29T22:49:06.642-08:002011-11-29T22:49:06.642-08:00Hm.

Then again, she was/is a kind of ridiculously huge crazy phenomena.<br /><br />Great illustration with such great style! And I love the progress pics. Sometimes I'm surprised more people don't do them, but just because I picked up a relatively cheap scanner recently doesn't mean everyone has one. Also, you have to remember to stop and take a picture or whatever.<br /><br />I don't do different versions though, like you clearly have. Do you recommend it, at least once in a while?Cindy D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14818401562297915046noreply@blogger.com
