Wonderful sketchbook Sula! I love every update! Keep it up! In regards to that will to work, fight the urge to do nothing and keep trying to do at least something each day. Even if its just a sketch! You have the drive and determination keep it up and I look forward to the next entry.


RE: Sula's Sketchbook - Ursula Dorada - 06-07-2013

@Joshua: Thanks man! And yup, trying very hard on my side here ;)

So!
This week is self portrait week and I am having a bad hair week.
Bear with me.
My first ever self portrait, and haha I don't know if I will be able to endure all this grumpy-faceness of me.

Today's, with ambient light and lot of gray.
I does make room to see more subtle colors variations though.

Crawling back from the darkness.
Revised the self portrait because people said I was looking to old. And a quick sketch to get out of the void.

So.
Some of you may know something big is going in Brazil right now. This is base on a historic photograph taken here yesterday - the people taking over our congress.
I am not really sure what is happening just yet, but its the biggest we have seen for a while, its peaceful, and people are not giving up.
