Kirra-Photograpy at DA allowed me to use her beautiful and stunning photography named "Porcelain". I took some time to think, get the real idea for this amazing reference - and i've failed miserably. But i had to try, to do "Painted Porcelain."
I decided to fokus on the eyes and nose, to try out a new cutting. Traditional pencil portraits tend to be so... alike.

Done with my mechanical pencil HB, eraser and my new Windsor and Newton watercolours. I just had to try them out :3 With that i mean: THIS IS THE FIRST WATERCOLOUR PIECE I'VE DONE SINCE KINDERGARTEN.

So, thanks to Kirra-Photograpy - it was a pleasure and honour I hope i didn't kill it completely.

IT'S MUCH DARKER IRL, THE CONTRAST IS WAY BETTER - But my scanner is a nightmare, it tears things totally appart x_x

Woww you didnt kill it at all, it looks amazing.. The eyes are just, wow @3@ And you did really good on the nose. Alot of people mess up on noses but you made it look so perfect.

Awesome job.

No need to defend the piece so much. It's lovely. The eyes are absolutely captivating. Wonderful execution. I would prefer the blue background to be a little smoother, more watery, but that's just my personal preference, and it in no way detracts from the whole piece.
