Art post: portraits

As some of you might know, I'm in art school. Not full time, just a painting class at the local part-time art college: 2 evenings and Saturday morning. Because I've painted quite a lot this year, I've decided to do some art posts on my blog, also :).  
These are in chronological order and all of them are potraits after photo.


 

Portrait after cover of an edition of Planet Perfume Magazine, which gets handed out for free every few months at, you guessed it: Planet Perfume. 
I painted this because I painted that kind of flowers, in a vase though, in my first year (I"m in my 3rd year now). 
Derwent graphite pencil in B, Kuretake Gansai Tambi watercolour, Ecoline brush pen (as watercolour) and Stabilo fineliner on Daler-Rowney Aquafine paper. 
I may have the patience to paint on eyelashes, but I don't have the patience to paint on all the details inside the flowers, hence the fineliner.

 

Portrait of Abby Corkins. 
Derwent graphite pencil in B, Kuretake Gansai Tambi watercolour and Posca markers on Daler-Rowney Aquafine paper.

 

Portrait of Birdie (BirdBrainFX). 
Derwent graphite pencil in B, Kuretake Gansai Tambi watercolour and Posca markers on Daler-Rowney Aquafine paper.

 

Another portrait of Birdie. 
I did this one for her birthday :). 
Derwent graphite pencil in B, Ecoline brush pens (as watercolour) and Posca markers on white Maruman Croquis paper.

 

Photo after the cover of Stylist, a free French magazine. 
I think this was the cover of the June 2018 edition, but it might also have been the October one. 
Derwent graphite pencil in B, Kuretake Gansai Tambi watercolour, Talens gouache, Posca and Molotow markers and some colours from the super cheapo kiddie watercolour palette we have lingering around in the class art supply cabinet. On Daler-Rowney Aquafine paper.

 

Portrait of Heather 
Derwent graphite pencil in B, Kuretake Gansai Tambi watercolour, Ecoline (both ink and brush pens used as watercolour) and Posca markers on Daler-Rowney Aquafine paper. 

 

Sketch portrait of Lilith, aka Madam Satan, from Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. Which I did because I was excited for season 2. 
Pentel P203 mechanical pencil in B, Kuretake Gansai Tambi watercolour, Kuretake brush pens and Sakura fineliners on cream Maruman Croquis paper.
