Portrait of woman

[MILTON]

Dear Xara X users:
I feel that this project is still unfinished. In my original free hand drawing it is a full figure project with a flowery landscape as background.I would apreciate coments on the girl`s face as it stands now.

It's a nice style.

The eye on the right (her left eye) troubles me. I'm not sure how to correct it - it's either a perspective issue or concerns how the front of the face needs to be angled to the right and left of the nose - like a fold down the centre.

This is a very good portrait.
I took the liberty of checking the
angles and I think you will be able
to see what is wrong.
The girls left eye is lacking the fold
in the eyelid, and the tear duct.
Having done that, it is a better portrait
than i could do in Xara.

Hello Milton,

I like your style of drawing very much. You are very skilled using Xara X.

Brian and I seem to have the same idea about the lady's left eye. I hope you don't mind, I made an alteration to show how the angle would work.

Boa tarde, Milton!

I like what you are doing here. I also would agree that the left eye is not completely correct, though it's hard to put a finger on what it is.

The jawline seems like it needs a bit of work as well, perhaps it's too straight, or too long in continuing toward her hair? Better job than I could do at present though! I'd like to see the finished product, my friend!

Thank you very much for the comments.I really don´t know how to rebuild the girl´s eye. Maybe it is better to restart the illustration from the beginning. Next month I will be envolved with a new Xara project. I will try to reproduce some of the landscapes of the city that I live. So I will be with all of you again in the Xara gallery.

I like your style, even with all those "wrong" angles... Art is what artist see through his eyes - his own point of view. Thumbs up.
