I made it to 100!!!

Today, I made it to my 100th portrait in 100 days! For this last portrait, I decided to draw my daughters, Jade and Chloe from a photo we took on a playground in Hayes Valley in San Francisco.

Here is my 99th, which I wasn't happy with - but I've been staying up so late every night to watch the Olympics, I was too exhausted to redo it.

And my 98th portrait.

Thanks so much for following me on this journey! I think I'll take a little break to catch up on all my online art class homework before I start my next 100 day project.

Portraits 86 - 92 for the 100 Day Project

It's been too long since I've posted my portraits for the 100 Day Project. Here are portraits 86-92 in reverse order.

Which is your favorite of the bunch?

Portraits 84 & 85

Sktchy has been running occasional art challenges on Instagram featuring a particular person who has inspired lots of artists and one particular photo to draw. Portrait 84 was done for Sktchy's latest art challenge.

For portrait 85, I drew a Sktchy inspiration photo of the coolest kid. I love her sunglasses, hat, Mother Teresa tank, and frog!

This is her brother, whom I've drawn previously. They look like such a fun family!

Portraits 80-83

Here are my latest portraits for the 100 Day Project. I've been trying to loosen my style and improve my watercolor skills.

This is a piece done of a friend's niece. Such a cute inspiration photo!

This is a Sktchy portrait that I attempted in an effort to also work on skies as I've been doing in Shari Blaukopf's Sketching Landscapes Craftsy class.

This is a portrait of Megan, my dear friend's niece who recently tragically died in a car accident. I plan to redo this in an 8 x 10" format that she can frame. I tried to emulate the loose, sketchy style of many artists I admire, especially Sktchy artist Dominic Beyeler.

Finally, this is another Sktchy portrait in which I tried to loose my style like I did with Megan's portrait above. More practice is needed!

Which do you like best? Do you prefer a looser style of sketching?
