"Trippy" with water colours and markerpen


"Trippy" 
Water colors and marker pen 2016.
I haven't updated here for long while because I mainly update art to my Instagram. This is a water color study of three dimensional objects and color shading. I love how water colors blends but it is still hard to control the blending. I used few other techniques with marker pen to bring more live to the painting. I hope you like it! Feel free to leave comments.

This was one wedding portrait that I made with sepia pastels
Size was A3
2003


This is a portrait of one boy. I used only black colorpen making it. It was year 2003 when I started drawing and painting portraits and this was one of the first ones I made. I learned the technique of drawing portraits very quickly but still drawing or painting different hairstyles properly was the most difficult thing.
Drawing this portrait took me aproximately quarter of an hour.












This drawing was also made in year 2003.
At this time I did portraits almost for living...
Drawing children is challenging but still easy because every child looks so different. You can see the characteristic differences lot easier from child´s face than from adult´s face.










I just hated drawing this kind of wedding portraits. It was very challenging but sometimes if I had to draw a portrait from two different pictures and the lightnings were completely different. It was almost impossible to make good quality portraits from bad quality pictures. Anyway it is easier if I can see the person in live who I am drawing.







This drawing was made a lot before than those portraits abowe. Back then I couldn´t draw faces so after a year or so I took the challenge to start drawing portraits.
"Jukka"
This is a portrait of my twinbrother Jukka.
60 x 80 cm. Acryls 2003.

I made these two portraits of children with sepia pastels in 2003.
