Hey Brian, it looks amazing... but as Rifty already said, I like all of your drawings, by now . Thanks again for the special link....seems I am the only one now?!?!?! Elena: Why??? Why did you have to leave me?!?!?

...also tried a selfportrait once...but got a little disappointed because I saw so many strange things in my face I never realised before I always stood up and run in the bathroom to check in the mirror if it realy is like that Maybe I'll do one again...

Brian thats a fantastic portrait, I thinks its good thing elenas in germany lol
evryones doing self portraits its great to put a face to the artists. (those that dont have it on their avatar or websites that is).

I think your mom will love it!

hum well, what shall I say ...Michigan? ...that's just like 10 hours by plane, that ain't no problem for me
Brian I hope you won't disappoint me and not come to my party tomorrow , I'd be really really mad ! You promised you'd be there ...
I suggest you should take a plane pretty soon, cause of the jetlag... ...

Ok thanks I am on a4 but someday I will start on a3. I bought a3 papers some weeks ago

Rifty, Elena, Ines, Sg, Mondolondo, Roxy, Helena, and Ron thank you for all your comments on the self portrait.

Ines, since then I have fixed the nose problem, thank you for pointing that out, all it took was some quick dabs with my kneaded rubber eraser to fix the flatness on the nose.

Ron, I agree that it's nice to actually see what everyone looks like, makes everything much more personal, feel connected more.

Elena, yeah I will just hop on a plane and be right over. Thanks for trying to critique on the self portrait.

SG I think bigger drawings are actually alot easier because there is a larger margin of error. If something isn't quite right, you don't notice it as much, I am actually thinking of going bigger than A3 paper.

I went and did another drawing. This time it's a colored drawing of Milla Jovovich. I don't really think she's anything special but someone else wanted me to draw her so I did. Helena here's your special link girl:

Yeah Brian, try the larger sizes, I use 14"x17" and love it. The only down side is its a pain in the a** to carry the sketchbook around.

have fun at elenas party ( slinks away feeling dejected ) lol

Oh yeah! I love the new picture. your right though shes nothing special, sometimes she looks super attractive and other times just kinda haggard.

Yeah I know that Ron, I have a pad of 24"x18" and it's huge. I have never drawn anything that big, I just cut it down to 11x14.

Yes me too. But I do not know if I am ready for those sizes yet. But I will proberly go over to larger paper sometime. There is allso more space for details.

The new colourdrawing of yours is really beautiful I like the purple in her eyes.

The girl got small iris Normally the iris are not fully visible. It may be the starring thing that makes it look like that though
