O Girl 3
This is my third drawing in the Oh My Girls series. I think I will take a break from drawing models in beauty ads. I did notice that my level of concentration has improved over the last few months of drawing. I discovered Pandora Radio during this drawing and used it a lot as I drew. I did something at the last minute with the eyes on this drawing. I added some shading behind the pupils to make them look like zeppelins or dirigibles. I got the inspiration from a previous drawing, Hilton Head Daze, where I added stripes to the eyes. Normally I leave the eyes white or light gray. My logic for leaving the eyes white with out details is that I want the person viewing the artwork to be grounded with the eyes as a comfort area to rest after browsing all of the crazy colors and shapes on the drawing. I decided on this piece to take the resting spot away. When I look at these drawings side by side they are very similar in the colors, but completely different.
This color pencil drawing was created in January 2011.
