So I'm back to practicing portraiture now. It's been quite some time and I'm really enjoying it. I figured that it would be best to draw well known faces. They are always around and tend to stay in ones mind.I, personally, find people from the black and white era of Bollywood to be extremely beautiful with highly expressive visages.
I'd picked up cheap graphite shading pencils from Sears, from the 'back to school' section and a thick sketch pad as well... I got down to it and couldn't stop.. I finished a portrait in about three hours. It's been fun. Can't wait to try out the dry brush technique though... Soon... :)
More coming up here...Watch this space..

| Meena Kumari This tragedy queen had the softest, most sensitive face of all. She'd convey her feelings in silence, with downcast eyes and a philosophical frown. |
 |
| Dilip Kumar Dashing, debonair Dilip....One could easily sense the hopeless romantic under the egoistic facade. |
 |
| Nargis She'd put Narcissus to shame...Her face was labelled the most symmetrical face of that age.I love her classic, Greco-roman features. |
 |
| Madhubala No words for this one...She had one of those faces people couldn't stop staring at. Perfect features and an endearing personality. |
More coming up here...Watch this space..
