Character Portraits!

My favourite class is back again! Here's some portraits from Figure Illustration. The goal was to do the protagonist and antagonist of a story, so I picked Hans Christian Anderson's The Snow Queen.

Both are done with oils on gessoed illustration board and then fixed up in photoshop, though the second one had an initial layer of acrylic paint underneath as well.

On another note, Drink and Draw tomorrow night! If anyone is at Kensington Pub tomorrow around 4 or 5, stop by and say hi!
