Trying something new

Faces are hard, right? For some people, at least. For me, at least. I’ve always had a hard time finding the lines, shadows and highlights in people’s faces. And the symmetry, the goddamn symmetry… I don’t find faces as rational as the human body. There are so many differences in one person’s face compared to the next. But a body is and always will be a body. No one’s reeeaally gonna question if that nude body you drew was reeeaaally that celeb or that family member or that friend. But their face? There’s a lot that has to be perfect for a face to look like a face. And I don’t do perfect. But hey, honesty I do. So here’s me trying something new. I won’t tell you who it is, because it doesn’t really matter. Maybe you’ll figure it out when I’m done with her. I had to photo trace parts of her eyes though since they went to hell. Now the photo is just side-by-side again though. I think plants are more my vibe. But practice makes perfect, isn’t that so? /Angelimate

Hi! Angela here. An artist/photographer from Sweden just trying to get her name out there. I've been interested in both photo and art since I was a child. For business inquiries, send me an email at: angela.engstrom@hotmail.com and I will do my best to answer any questions you might have. There are plans to launch a store in the future, but I don't know how or when quite yet. I will of course let you know. Thanks in advance.
