Meet Miss Nicole

Meet Miss Nicole - N was the next letter in line and I could only think of nickel which is gray so I've chosen some other colours for Nicole. I also tried a side on portrait this time too.

Two Book Reviews

I have reviewed two books over on the Creative Klatch Blog about drawing and painting mixed media faces which is something I am focussing on creating this year.

1. Mixed Media Portraits with Pam Carriker - Techniques for Drawing and Painting Faces  and 2. Drawing and Painting Beautiful Faces - The Mixed Media Portrait Workshop with Jane Davenport are both great books and I'm enjoying learning from both of them.

Check out my review here if you are thinking of buying these books.
