For this piece of my concentration I drew my mom. This is when the pieces are getting a little more difficult. As I work on people who are older, the harder the pieces get for me. The skin has more wrinkles in it and isn't as smooth as a teenager or toddler would be. My mom's skin is still pretty smooth but there were some parts that were more difficult than others. I didn't like this piece at all at first. I don't think it looks too much like my mom. But as time has passed, I like it a little more. I still may do another one of her, and try to portray a different emotion though. I really like how her hair turned out. The highlights help make the piece in my opinion. She has a lot of freckles so that was difficult, and I still haven't added all that I wanted to. I still want to add some value to her teeth and a little more shadow under her chin. With her hair being so dark, I feel that there needs to be some darker value in her face. Over all, I am starting to like this piece and I like the smoothness of her skin.
