Look, I know the Disney stars have to grow up at some point, but what's so wrong with taking the good girl image with them into their adult years?"After the premiere of Hilary Duff's first R-rated movie, War, Inc., Newsday reporter Lewis Beale described Duff's character, Yonica Babyyeah, as "a foul-mouthed, oversexed and underdressed Central Asian pop singer so outrageous she makes Madonna look li
This being the first day of May, I'm starting the annual Every Day in May challenge. Which means doing some sort of art work every day. Today's work was to continue with my portrait of my niece, Lizzie. I've made a few adjustments to the left eye and the mouth (I always find the mouth the hardest part to get right, for some reason) and done a bit more work on the hair. I'm still not completely satisfied with the likeness, but it's better than it was. I don't think I'll do much more work on the hair; I like portraits that are more and more "unfinished" the further away you get from the face. This time I've also posted my reference photograph in case anyone can spot any glaring problems that I could easily correct!
I've done some more work on my portrait of my niece, Lizzie. It's coming along quite nicely, though I'm beginning to wish that she had shorter hair! There's something not quite right with the likeness, though I just don't seem to be able to put my finger on what it is. It's getting closer, though!Meanwhile, I'm feeling rather stiff today. I foolishly allowed myself to be talked in to entering a 10km (6 mile) "fun run" that is raising money form Muscular Dystrophy. Given that the last time I ran in any sort of race was my school sports day when I ran the 800m (a distance that I remember thinking at the time was unreasonably long!), I thought I'd better get in some practice. My big fear (apart from doing something really silly like tripping over a kerb) is being overtaken by someone dr
Another hour or so to work on this drawing this evening. I've only got about three weeks to get everything I need finished before the show, so I hope to make faster progress later in the week. But I think it is going to be OK...fingers crossed! I've done some more work on the face, trying to smooth the texture as well as adding some more details.PS For some reason the scanner seems not to be working properly, so this looks much less smooth than it really is.Technorati Tags: portraits, drawing, graphite, wip, Lizzie
I've finally succeeded in getting a good reference photo of my niece, Lizzie, so I'm doing a drawing of her that I hope will be ready in time to include in the group show that I'm going to take part in during Oxford Artweeks. I say "group show" because that sounds like something a proper artist would take part in! Actually, it's a group of members of Medley Sailing Club who have decided to put on a show in our clubhouse, which is located right on the banks of the Thames in Port Meadow. I thought it would be fun to take part, because every year I go around and see as many artists' work as I can but I would never have thought of joining in myself until this idea came up.As for the drawing, it's early days yet but I think the pose is a nice one, so it should make for a good drawing. Though a
Ya en un post anterior había escrito si acaso Miley Cyrus podría superar a Hilary Duff y, por los comentarios que he leído, tal parece que la pregunta no fue entendida en su real contexto.Sucede que Hilary ha filmado esta película, War Inc., donde echa por tierra su imagen de niña buena de Disney y a juzgar por las escenas que protagoniza en la peli, si bien es cierto no son descarnadas, revelan que ha optado por una imagen más sexy y más sensual en la pantalla grande.La pregunta planteada entonces en el post anterior era más o menos equivalente a esta: ¿dejará Miley más adelante, al igual que Hilary, su imagen de niña buena de Disney y nos sorprenderá en la pantalla grande?Aquí he conseguido algunas fotos nuevas de la promo de esta peli. El vídeo sensacional donde protagoni

http://www.bagadoodle.com/Description.asp?ID=769Okay, so I had to submit this little makeup bag even though I just highlighted another Bari J item. I have one of these and they are very simple little purses that you can put in your purse to help organize it. I keep my checkbook and some pens in mine. You can keep make up or anything else in it. I highly recommend this little bag and it is only $16!
