Eyliana's sketches
#23
Hey there Eyliana, great studies, especially facial anatomy! 
Note to myself: I need to put in more work like this..

I looked closely where I can share some tips so I hope you appreciate:
I think you can really take your colored portraits to the next level by trying this one the next ones:

Be bolder with your shadows (darker values, but avoid using black like you already do)
but also consider highlights. You'll be less dependent on outlining and get much more sense of form.
Take into account the different zones of the face, here's what I mean:

Of course this needs to be applied ever so slightly! It'll breathe more life into your paintings :)
Final one: don't leave the white of the eyes white, usually there's a shadow on the upper half from the lid and try to get that spherical shape of the eye.

Have fun! I really like to see what you make of these :)
