Lovely dog pastel drawing

This time I wanted to draw a dog. So I was searching for some reference photos and this is what I found.  This dog looks so adorable. I just had to draw him. I got the reference photo from: Artist Reference group on facebook. Thank you Bill Muck for this picture.

With this drawing I learned to use the soft pastels and to blend colors together. I hope you like it.

Tiger

This is absolutely my favourite tiger that I've done so far. Reference photo: Angela Franke. Soft pastels on A3. I'm quite happy with the way it looks. What do you think? 

And here are some work in progress shots:

Will Smith

This is my favorite colored portrait so far. Why? Because I always thought that it would be impossible to draw person with open mouth and with teeth. But finally I somehow fired out how to do that.

Learning to draw the hair

I have always struggled with drawing the hair. I decided to choose this picture of Christina Aguilera because her hair is so beautiful. I think I did pretty well.

It took me about 20 hours
