:blushes: I'm just an amateur attempting to draw to satisfy my fan-dom:D I must say I learned so much from artists on dA!

I'm not a football game goer, but yes, it's going on around here... somewhere:lol:

I have learned much this last year and especially from this wonderful photo from =offshore and a great model. you may enjoy one of my favorite sites..... [link] this is a forum of portrait pencil artists from around the world that discusses in detail methods techniques and textures...almost all of them post their work here on DA. I've learned many things from them. This is the site that discusses "eyes of the elders" and the use of WaterColor Paper for Portrait Work. It's a safe site and you don't get junk mail. try it and let me know what you think.
