Description hi i hate drawing hair.
she normally has dark curly hair but in my process of drawing it i knew it would look like dark blobs around her face, so some changes had to be done (though it was painful for me to draw it completely different without reference).
also, word of advice here, avoid putting your fingers all over the paper; i've apparently avoided this issue up until this piece, somehow, and two fingerprints have left their mark in the drawing which i can't exactly remove.
the reference pic is an ad for color contact lenses, and she looks like a number of people to me. can't explain it.

B, HB, F, 2H pencils
9x12 bristol vellum paper
12+ hours
and kleenex makes the world a smoother place

uhhhhhh i have no idea! it just happens! ummm... keep the white parts white? i kind of outline what parts need to be shiny before coloring in the lips. that's all. it's not that exciting!

Absolutely wonderful. Gorgeous smooth shading and the hair looks fantastic! Great effort. My fave part has to be the eyes tho, they are beautifully captured, i applaud your choice of title! The eyelashes are delicate and you have gone to a lot of trouble with the iris detail. Stunning. The lips are equally as nice, they look v glossy. Brilliant work

MAKE HER PUPILS DARKER!!! you owe it to the drawing to have midnight pupils, it will make them look liquid dark, giving them moistness-everything else is great though

This is amazing. Is that Adriana Lima? She does usually have curly hair which is why I ask. It looks great with the straight hair though. Again, very nice job, keep it up.
