How to draw a face VIDEO TUTORIALS

Hi everyone,

It's rainy and cold outside here...  all I dream is my blanket and some hot fruit tea.
There is nothing better in days like this to catch up with blogging and show my recent works.
So what have I been up recently ?

Journaling, drawing... learning !
Recently I have been inspired by amazing faces! Yes, faces in all kinds.
I decided I must learn some ! Pinterest is a great source of inspirations... and YouTube of course :)
I can spend hours by flicking through the photos and videos ! Hours!

After lookig at all those beautiflu girls I knew I must give a try!
I drew a face... and even coloured it :) I was very pleased with myself... to the point that I wanted to make more and more :)

Next one was this pinky, girly girl :) with big blue eyes !

I loved her too but... I felt to try again and make it even nicer.
I decided and record my trial this time :)

And here I made... my far most beautiful face. I was very happy that I recored this time :) so... I can show it to you now ! I hope you will enjoy the video !

So many of you liked this video and asked for more ! So many of you shared your drawings with me :) I love those moments, then I know it all has sense.

After few request I drew and coloured new girl ! Girl from thr woods :)

You can watch full video tutorial here:

Did I tell you that drawing faces... and then colouring them is addictive ? :)

Here are faces shared with me from my dear facebook friends !

Hello my dear friends !

Welcome all my regular visitors and those who are here for the first time :)

It will be super long post so grab some tea or coffee and enjoy !:):)

For those who follow my Instagram... most of those photos are well known :)

I love, love Instagram :)

I usually create at night... 
Recently my big love are coloured journals, this is how I called them. Those are full of colours, shapes and happiness.

 
I love trying out new techniques and art materials in my journals. This is a great way to experiment and simply enjoy the process.
Now I am testing PaperArtsy FrescoFinish paints. Do you know them ??? :)
I totally love them - here is PaperArtsy Facebook page if you wish to give them a follow, they also have amazing stamps !!!
Check them out - PaperArtsy Blog
Look at those amazing, amazing colours !!! You can see on my YouTube channel tutorials where I use those paints :)

I love creating in the night, somehow I have so much ideas then... maybe because it's quiet :) my little studio is like my cave... I have a big table and so much things on it... messy but I adore it, this is where I feel good.

As promised :) here are two colour pages with video tutorials !
I hope you will enjoy them both !
