Unspoken Wordsby ~Snow-Owl

Traditional Art / Drawings / Portraits & Figures

I'm very grateful to

, who let me use one of his beautiful photos, called 'Emerald Eyes' [link] for this drawing.

It took me more than a month to make this picture as I wanted it to be detailed and show all the emotions which I saw looking at the photograph. But the original image was very inspiring, so every single centimeter was very interesting to draw.

Tools that were used:
*B and 2B mechanical pencils
*clickable eraser
*cotton balls (for blending)
*watercolour paper

As always, your comments and faves are very appreciated.

very beautiful work!

I believe you have captured the expression perfectly. The shading is amazing and I really like the way you've drawn the hair! Great work

Es una gran imagen y un excelente trabajo

Excellent work ! Is it taken from the painting by Paul Knight (1965) ? Thank you !

~Snow-Owl Feb 21, 2013 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

Thank you! No, not at all - this drawing and P. Knight's painting (I dare to say this, since it's obvious, seeing that painting) are based on a photograph by the talented Anthony Asael, 'Emeral eyes': [link]
