So I tried to draw Lily James as Cinderella, but when I looked up from working on the finer details, another lady's face stared out from the page…
Here's some pics from the process :)
1. Marking out head and facial proportions with rough sketch lines
2. Solidifying linework, sketching some shape and movement in the hair
3. In the shading process (sorry, we're skipping a few steps here cos I forgot to take photos :P! Basically, in between steps 2 and 3, I worked on the eyes/nose/mouth proportions and then started filling in shadows and textures and other details :) Then I moved on to shade the chin, cheeks, temple and of course the shapes in the neck and shoulders)
4. More shading, adding a little more depth to the hair—and a distinct shadow under the chin that falls onto her left shoulder.
5. I know the shading and proportions are still not perfect, and she doesn't really look like Lily hehehe, but it was good practice! Hope I have more opportunities to draw before I get lost in the storm of assessments…
I love the emphasis on kindness in the live-action Cinderella. Kindness—o what a beautiful gift!
"Let all bitterness, wrath, anger,
clamor, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to
one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ
forgave you." Ephesians 4:31-32
Love to write more on this but it's indeed time for a late lunch of noodles and fish balls. Have a wonderful week! xx
