Drawing Chloe

As in all of my drawings, the first thing to do is get a photo reference that is clear and shows plenty of detail. So many want a portrait done, but the photo they have is blurry, or doesn't show a lot of detail. If I had my way, I would ask all reference photos to be from a professional photographer. Their photos are always so crisp and detailed. Unfortunately that isn't always possible, so make sure you get the best you can and go from there

Drawing Clint Eastwood

When it comes to drawing, the best results are from choosing a subject that is interesting. Who other than Clint Eastwood would be a more perfect selection?

I've been a Clint Eastwood fan long before Dirty Hairy existed! He was one of my childhood Idols, as well as now!

I found the reference photo in a copy of "GQ Magazine." The photo shows a great deal of detail and an undeniable "squinting of the eyes."

Drawing Randy Jackson

It's fun to draw someone that almost anyone can recognize. I found this photo and decided to use it for my reference photo. Randy Jackson is one of the American Idol Judges and a household name.  Here's the rest of the hub http://hubpages.com/hub/Drawing-Randy-Jackson-American-Idol-Judge
