The Soonchan

Messing around again at church.

This is our one and only male youth group member. He is growing out his hair into an amazing fro. I loved it so much, I wanted to draw it... with birds in it (his idea).

Couldn't find a good frontal view of his face, so I just included the profile so you can have an idea of his hair.

I went a little too crazy with the under nose shadows, so it looks like he has a mustache. Oops.

Sketch

Some of the youth and I were goofing around at church and drawing random pictures. I sketched one of my cousin (second cousin?). It came out strangely okay, which surprised me because I hadn't drawn portraits in FOREVER. I used to draw them all the time in high school. My drawing accuracy got worse as I got older, probably because of lack of practice. I would get so frustrated with my faces that I would leave part of it undone, usually one of the eyes. Hence, I ended up creating a number of one-eyed sketches. Haha... Either that, or my proportions would be so off, that the drawing would end up looking like a person, but a totally different person, that I had never met until creating the picture. Anyway, being proud that this sketch didn't turn out to be a total mutation, I thought I'd post it in case I end up never being able to sketch a normal face again. :) She's the one in the pink. This was like the only normal picture I could find of her. Making wacky faces in pics must run in my family.
