    I watched part 1 which was great. What part 2 really taught me was shadowing and letting my paint brush do the painting for me. I have a tendancy to be too controlling but I'm working on it. Thanks Dina. Luv ya!

  • @inspiredcaroline24

    I appreciate that this was a good while ago but that's the brilliant thing about UA-cam. It doesn't judge where we are in our creative journey. I'm actually doing an online & UA-cam & FB course, with @karencampbell. I am sure you know her. She has been the biggest part of my drawing faces (that I believed strongly, "I can't draw anything, let alone faces"). I'll be eternally grateful to Karen, for this. Your previous video emphasised how much I have learned because the approach & basic principles are the same. Yay!! That's why I had to watch this one too. I am so inspired to stay on my current path of melding together my mixed media, with my need to draw. I was exactly how you described; using stamps or cut out images for faces. It wasn't long before I really had that 'need', to at least try. I still have a huge amount to learn and discover what does/doesn't work for me. However, the process itself is, for me, the best thing. An example is: 1 minute into this video, I hit pause and impulsively went to draw a face on a piece of cardboard!! I then stepped away "her" to watch the remainder of your girl. I cannot express how enthralling this is, and I have found a new enthusiasm, a raison d'ètre if you will? Sorry, I'm waffling on, I just get so caught up in the whole thing! Your girl is fabulous, so cool with the background & extraneous lines being part of her. The idea of adding a word is really appealing, might "borrow" that sometime, if you don't mind? Thank you very much for sharing your creativity! Caroline😃🐾
