I feel fortunate

to have people willing to let me work on them so I can practice. My thighs are enjoying the break. :)

I did this one last night on a friend. She wanted her butterfly to have bigger wings so signify her “spreading her wings” by graduating college. Here is the before. Took the picture after I marked up how we wanted the wings to look.

Here is is after.

Negatives:

I had a small “hitch” in the upper part of the left wing. My shader died during and I am pretty sure I overworked some skin trying to make it work before switching to my liner to finish. Rather than continuing to overwork it we decided l have to go back in and retouch some color.

Positives:

I slowed down…this is my focus lately.
My lines are getting better and more consistent
She loves it…this is the best part. :)

Next focus:
Keep working on lining consistency
continue to focus on taking my time and getting color all the way in with no spots.
