Another amazing wildlife photographer: Alexandra S Another amazing wildlife photographer: Alexandra Sirkova - @alexandrovich_yo - and one of her beautiful models. 🦓 Drawn for MOTHER magazine Vol. 2 👉 @magazine.mother 🖤 I‘m coming close to the end with these portraits and getting into a crisis… HELP! I have drawn 13 portraits by now and after number 9 or so I was at a state where I thought „ok, now I am confident in drawing faces and no portrait can scare me anymore!“ But now, suddenly, it’s the opposite way. Sometimes it seems to me, like I had never drawn a face before. What happened? Why is it so difficult now when it actually should be getting easier?? 🤯

There happened a lot even if I didn’t show anyth There happened a lot even if I didn’t show anything for a longer period. This is actually one of three portraits I made since my last post. But there were some difficulties with the first one and the last one is currently in the review phase. 🥸 So I decided to show you this portrait of the underwater photographer and award-winning journalist helen_walne , that I made for @magazine.mother Vol. 2 (coming soon!) The face expression is‘t that easy but because of a lack of photos I wanted to give it a try. I liked this heartily laughing face together with all those jellyfish swimming around her. What do you think, ok or not?

#workinprogress ✍🏻 First drawing after two we #workinprogress ✍🏻 First drawing after two weeks of laziness. When I made the first lines of this drawing yesterday, I thought this would end in the bin… I was literally a bit scared of the pencil. 😄 But today I made a lot of progress and I think it’s actually not that bad. What do you think?
