This video reinforces the importance of tonal values and composition in a great way. Compared to the reference photo your portrait looks much more hopeful and up-lifting.

    Ok. This is beautiful but the measurements are off. She reduced the size of her forehead, width of her face, length of her jaw and size of her eyes just to mention a few things that prevents her lovely drawing from actually resembling the model. She made her face too small. The drawing looks more like a younger girl vs a gorgeous young woman. Still very lovely but not to her likeness. Also, her mouth is wider than in the drawing. The whole volume of the head is too narrow.

    • @martacrawfordfineart
      @martacrawfordfineart 13 днів тому

      Remember that this is not an exact copy of a photo. I mentioned that. I took artistic license. I do t see the point on making her look exactly like the photo: it will take far too long as a starter, plus for that, there’s photography. Since it’s not a commission. Also, the perspective is different because of the camera.
