[COMPLETED] Zhi Su’s 100 Day Challenge: Portrait and Figure

[PaulDidier]

Nice. I’ve always struggled with heavily textured paper. You’re making it work for you.

[ZHI SU]

Thank you both Bryan and Paul. You are very kind.

Day 37

I spent 5 hours on this only to realize that I may need another 100 layers or so to make it look good . Colored pencil is so hard. I give up.

Hi Zhi Su!

Great job on all this work! Keep it up! I’m including a draw over with some structural corrections and things to keep in mind and a more painterly draw over to demonstrate the importance of the big tonal relationships.

 

[ZHI SU]

Thank you so much Iliya!  My eyes are still tracing the body shape and all the details come with it. I am working on seeing big value shapes. You comments are very helpful!

[PaulDidier]

Zhi Su, I haven’t had a chance to follow the boards much for about a week and I’m really struck by your improvement! I really like your colored pencil from May 18th.

[ZHI SU]

Thank you Lucas and Paul. I am surprised that I’m still going.
