Illustration Friday: Citrus


This is another topic where at first I just thought, "Huh?" But I have found if I let a topic alone for a bit an image will come to mind. The other thing that I'm working on is faces. At my portfolio review she said she wanted to see more faces. And the more I thought about it I do tend to shy away from faces. So I'm trying to get more comfortable with faces. Also in this piece I was exploring working from memory. (Watercolor pencils)

This piece carries the theme really well. For some reason I am drawn to this artwork alot. Maybe it is the over-sized fruit and the expression on the girl's face. You did a great job here. I particularly like how you have captured the girl's ethnic features. The only thing I would change is to make the girl's hair darker to match with her eyes.
Love the colors as well.
