I'd like to start out by saying that contrary to what people may believe, everyone's face is not like everyone else's. It should be common knowledge. no two chins are the same distance from their noses, no two eyes are exactly the height, and distance of everyone else's. I try hard to emulate my portraits, as close to the actual picture, as I can. Sometimes things I do are not done to perfection, but I have to balk at taking advice when someone has not seen the original. So, now I have uploaded the original of this. I have also explained that I had to piece it together to look whole. Now that the original is posted, fire away. I'll take the criticism under the best consideration. On January 1st of this year, I uploaded a drawing titled "Not the One who Got Away." It is a drawing of my friend's son, and his soon to be wife. My friend, Patty, had a birthday recently, so I did this one for her. This time she is in the picture with them after the wedding. The drawing I did is 14" x 17", so I had to piece 1/2 to the other. in order to get them together after scanning them. It looks so-so, but it does look better in reality.
