Mom Drawing



Okay, I know what you're thinking. "It was drawn from a photograph." Well you're right, ha, ha.

This was a study I did early on in the game when I wasn't so good with drawing and painting from life. People may tell you that drawing and painting from a photo is no good. In fact, I'll tell you the same thing. However, I did learn something from drawing this. I learned that using photos for reference is okay but not to copy them. Copying is gay...So the moral is... Use photos as a tool to learn, not to copy.
