BCF Nor
Well, I really thought that I would not make it this week. I am pretty busy at the moment, so lately I have to make extra hours at work. But I persevered, not only work has deadlines, BCF does too!. I drew the line drawing blind in the car this morning. We went to work together and Nor drove the car. So I did blind contour drawings of his profile. However, honestly none of the drawings looks anything like him. I think one of them looks more like a cousin of Shrek. Another one looks like something right out of LOTR. I did have fun. Eventhough it does show that I am bad at drawing people, blind or not. BTW, colors were not applied blind.
And it will be Friday in about 5 minutes…

You did well doing this in a moving car! I think I like them sans colour. They have character.

I love seeing this face done this way–it is like seeing a crowd of the same person, all moving forward and bumping into each other! And I like both the colored and the black and white. This is such an original approach to this week’s challenge!

Thanks all!
Terri: I could do it because there was huge traffic jam on the express way, as usual.
Peter: bedankt voor het compliment.
Laura: Thanks! I really appreciate your comment.

I like the 4th rendition. They look like megalithic monuments ala Stonehenge + Mt. Rushmore on a grassy hillside. Is your comment regarding your ability to draw people, about capturing likenesses…because your people are great (especially considering they are blind contours).

Hi Lynne, thanks for your comment. I think that I am not very good at drawing people from life in general, capturing likeness in detail.

wonderful! It’s nice to see diffeerent versions and attempts. I like the addition of colour too.
I agree with ly3n, they do look megalithic. Reminds me of the Easter Island statues.
