This is Meera again. Not a bad angle on this model. Makes the drawing easy and fun!

Tarena was our model last night. I find her very hard to draw as her features are not regular - eyes are really big, nose prominent, face very narrow and heart shaped, lips almost puckered into a kiss in their natural state.

All these "irregular" features combine into a very beautiful and exotic looking woman - so nothing wrong with -her-...but it makes drawing her harder as all of my drawings end up looking like they are somehow "off" in feature and form.

I think this drawing is the closest I have come to capturing her.

I switched to painting a bit over the past two months and had this last night to show for my efforts. For 2.5 hours, I am fairly pleased with it. :)
