29 Faces in February, Face 29 Big Eye Gothic Angel Fairy Sketch Art...

Here is a sketch of a big eyed gothic maiden.  I have a vintage hat with a webbing like the one she is wearing.  I think she is most likely an angel fairy, although she could also be a mermaid or a goddess.  I'm unsure if I'll paint her or not, but I did enjoy sketching her.

She is face 29 for 29 faces in February.  The goal is to share 29 faces in the month of February.  To learn more about the challenge, please click here.  I found this challenge very inspiring, there's something about doing at least one sketch a day that's very satisfying.  The quality of my sketches from day to day varies, but I think the daily practice is very good.  I'm considering continuing to sketch daily in March, although they won't be all faces...

WIP Gothic Latina Fairy Angel Big Eye Art Original Painting Work in Progress + 29 Faces, Face Sketch Art 26...

In this original acrylic work in progress gothic Latina fairy angel painting, I've blocked in her hair and worked with some shading...  I still need to do a bit more shading on her top, cast a shadow on to her wings, refine her hair, and paint the flowers in this wip.  I also realized that her wings are uneven, so I need to try and correct that.  I did the rough sketch for this during the 29 sketches challenge last September.  I don't get to paint all of the faces inspired by the challenge, but I do get to do some of them...  I was hoping to finish her for last Tuesday, but there's still quite a bit more to do, I am however optimistic for the Tuesday coming up...

This is a work in progress, but I also usually post at least one finished piece on Tuesdays if you'd like to come to visit!  You also may see some of my finished paintings at www.lisarusso.com if you'd like.

WIP Gothic Latina Fairy Angel Big Eye Art Original Painting Work in Progress + 29 Faces, Face Sketch Art 5......

In this original acrylic work in progress gothic Latina fairy angel painting, I've worked some more on the shading of her face and started on her lips.  I have more refining to do with the shading and I'm not quite done with her lips, it's interesting how seeing something on the computer screen helps me to better see what needs doing.  She also needs her eyebrows and eyelashes and perhaps a bit of eye shadow...  I did the rough sketch for this during the 29 sketches challenge last September.  I don't get to paint all of the faces inspired by the challenge, but I do get to do some of them...
