Painting Self Portraits

I was really anxious in trying to paint people so I decided to paint a self portrait. It took me a total of three days.

Pencil Outline 

Finished hair

Completed face 

All finished!

People portraits

One of the reasons why I loved to draw animals so much is because I was so bad at drawing people. After practicing and practicing not only was I really happy with the outcome but how I improved so well. These are each my first graphite and colored pencil portraits that I really liked.

Anddd.... Colored Pencil Self Portrait. 

Tear Drops of Rain

"You say that you love rain,

but you open your umbrella

when it rains.

You say that you love the sun,

but you find a shadow spot

when the sun shines.

You say that you love the wind,

but you close your windows

when the wind blows.

This is why I am afraid;

You say that you love me too."

Throwback To Animals!

Last year all I drew were animals. The fox was the first colored pencil drawing I ever did.

Time Heals Everything, Even Broken Hearts

It was a snowy day outside so I decided to do a little time lapse of my painting. At this time I was obsessed with "As Time Goes By" by Phora. The lyrics my painting is based off are at the bottom. Also, I linked the song at the bottom of this blog to check out. 

Yeah, but as time keeps passing
Everything changes, that's the way things happen
I used to hate that I loved you so much
Cause when I felt like giving up
In my mind you were stuck
Stuck in my mind, shit I just couldn't leave you behind
Till I realized that all I really needed was time
Cause time heals everything, even broken hearts
