Eye compilation, graphite and charcoalby =jane-beata

Traditional Art / Drawings / Technical Drawings

Eyes drawn in graphite or charcoal, some where an eye study practice, some taken from portrait drawings I did earlier. In order to make this compilation look representative, I've used a slightly reddish photo filter over them.

I don't nearly draw as much as I paint, pencils in general make my hand hurt unlike brushes (soft touch), but I still enjoy it from time to time, especially when I'm traveling. Graphite and simple pencil drawing is easier for me than to fight charcoal (it needs to be fixed continuously), but the result drawing in charcoal looks much better on paper - it creates a velvety-looking texture, therefore I prefer it.

Critique by =ellecats Oct 9, 2012, 9:57:11 AM

It's astonishing how realistic each of these set of eyes are. Often people will try to make both eyes the same size or "perfect," but a lot of developing artists don't realize that that is not the way eyes truly are. Here, it is clear that you have studied eyes for a long time and have practiced with them for a long time.

The only thing that bothered me was the bottom left set of eyes; it's very difficult to see the pupils as they blend in with the rest of the iris.

Otherwise, amazing work! Continue to do so!
