"Elizabeth Taylor as Cleopatra," by Dayna Winters. |
For today's challenge, I decided to draw Elizabeth Taylor in her role as Cleopatra. I had little difficulty with the sketch, but have now found that in my struggle to address the issue with right eye emphasis I've been dealing with for the last month, I am now going to the opposite extreme and emphasizing the left eye in this particular depiction. I also would have liked to have a better photo to work with in order to get the finer details of the headdress just right - the resolution on most photos I found was pretty poor. Overall, I still think the drawing looks pretty good, and I would love doing a rendition in color in the near future.
Now, behind the scenes, I'm also working on a couple of craft projects, and I am currently painting an art contest submission (more on this later when it is permissible). In the mean time, keep your fingers and toes crossed for me! (smiling and winking).
