TDOD 01 Nini
Welcome to Ten Days Of Drawing Challenge. This is my personal challenge and I chose my own theme which is caricature.
This is a drawing of my friend @shookt. She was about 6 years old here I think. Let me show you the real photo so you can compare
Sorry friend if you do not look as good as the real one. I'm still practicing and learning.
Here are some screen shots of the drawing progress:
For the line drawing I used a pencil brush because I prefer to create a look that reminds me of crooked lines and childhood. I want to create a look with big bulgy eyes similar with my pinky and spiky characters.
The colors I tried to stick with the colors on the reference photo for now but maybe as I go along I might use a different palette
For the hair I want it to look big and with jagged edges. The nose and mouth I like that look typical of cartoon characters.
Here the base color done just added finishing touches like light and shadow. I must admit I got confused with my light source notice the highlight coming from all angles 😂.
There you had it the young Nini holding a bamboo props to be used in the annual festival. She felt embarrassed when I showed this to her. She's a teenager now I understand how it feels. She should not be embarrassed as she looks cute when she was young.
Ten Days Of Drawing Challenge is a series of drawing one makes on 10 consecutive days. I saw this on Instagram and I thought that I can also do it here. I love drawing and had been involved in creating drawings on some platforms or just simply for my own hobby. This challenge I believe I can accomplish given that I am always online and got lots of free time. It is a challenge so it is important not to miss a day. If you are interested you can create your own using any theme you prefer. In my case I chose to create caricatures. I'm still new with this kind of art and have no formal training. I think I will learn as I go along so be with me in my 10 day art journey.
Thank you for reading hope you like it.
