Hi,
I haven't posted in a while. Too nervous about having my work viewed, much less critiqued. I can post the reference photo for this if it aids in your critique (just got to find it!)
This was a sample done for a gallery that reps my pastel portraits to entice commissions from corporate entities. It was done in a rush for a presentation so I only spent about 8 hours on it. (that's a rush for me) Needlesstosay, I didn't spend a whole lot of time making sure the drawing was absolutely correct and I can easily observe that I have drawn the ear much too big and the nose is bit off. I didn't measure or anything, I just started drawing. This lack of preliminary planning is a persistent problem for me since I am always too eager to jump in with color and value and don't take the necessary time to make sure everything is right.
Please go easy on me! You guys have work that just blows me away, so anything you say will be helpful to me!
