Interesting Faces I
I did this sketch the other night from a magazine clipping...
I think it's from a bank or insurance ad originally. I just found it an interesting face, with it's asymmetry and heavy creases.

Dr Sketchy's Brisbane - September 2011
The beautiful, the stunning Lila Luxx...
...I'm not overly happy with these preliminary sketches, they don't look quite right.
The following ones are better. I tried working on a tinted background this time. The white highlights are done with liquid paper. This approach is kinda derivative of cartoonist/good girl artist Bill Ward...
And, a face!...
... Not the best face (Lila's face is far prettier than this), but a face nonetheless!
There was a 15 minute pose that we finished off with, but my sketch didn't hold up, so I won't bother posting it. The proportions were wrong, and the second face I attempted this night looked dreadful. There's little room for error when working with no pencil or eraser, that's the downside of ink.
