Elizabeth Taylor

I’ve done this drawing after a drawing from Ileana Hunter. She is a great artist and I liked her drawing of Elizabeth Taylor so much that I did it myself. When you compare it to hers you see my mistakes lol but it’s just for me and for learning purposes. This is also the first time I tried carbon pencils.

Still life from drawing course

This is from my drawing course I take in Vienna. It's a drawing based on a picture of the teacher. He has given me very helpful tips and I like how this turned out.

Drawings from the Life Drawing Course

These are the results of my 10 hours life drawing course. Each was done with a life model in 1 1/2-2 hours. The older woman in profile is off and the teacher couldn't tell me. It was an interesting course but no criticism came from the teacher - she was nice to everyone, resulting in the feeling I didn't learn anything from the course. But it was nice actually drawing life people. :)

Zooey Deschanel Pastel Portrait

I've done Zooey Deschanel in pastels. This is the first drawing that I'm proud of. It's not perfect of course, but I like how it turned out. It took me around 12 hours in total I guess.

Quick charcoal study

I'm trying different kinds of portrait techniques. This is a quick charcoal study.

Christina Ricci Pencil Portrait Drawing

This is supposed to be Christina Ricci. I think she is not so recognizable but I liked the portrait. When I did the scan I erased her left earlobe accidentally.. I will do a new scan someday - just wanted to post it now. I tried a new method where I used graphite powder and brush along with my pencils.

Two pen & ink drawings

Marilyn Monroe

Olivia Wilde

These are two pen & ink drawings of mine. They were both just for practicing drawing with pens.

Practicing hair drawing

I practiced drawing hair a lot the last week. Here are the results. ;) I'm quite happy with the last pic. It's actually from an ad for a hair shampoo and I didn't know how to draw it at first sight but my teacher at the art seminar I'm taking gave me a pretty good advice on how to tackle hairs. All done with pencil.

Eye

Just practicing with my colored pencils.

Lion with Pastels

This lion is done with pastel pencils (after Colin Bradley, I learned so much from this guy).

Prismacolor Colored Pencils and first portrait

My Set of 132 Prismacolor Colored Pencils has arrived - only 12 days shipping from US - yeah!

And this is the first portrait I did with them. As you can see it needs a lot more practice! It's supposed to be Scarlett Johansson.

Natalie Portman

This is my first portrait of Natalie Portman. It's done with graphite pencils on bristol paper - and yes this paper makes all the difference. ;-)

Arya from Game of Thrones

Done with an Ebony Pencil

Three pastel exercises

These are three exercises in pastel I did after Colin Bradley.

First pastel portrait
