A Romantic Scene from Gone With The Wind...

Hello...

My next portrait is a romantic scene which I'd selected from the epic love movie/novel of all times entitled, "Gone With The Wind", starring Clark Gable as the dashing Rhett Butler and Vivien Leigh as the pampered and beautiful Scarlett O' Hara.

Hello,

After doing Enrique, I decided to picked Jensen Ackles aka 'Dean' as my second 'model':-) I really like this actor from 'Supernatural' and I also likes his face:-) For me, this guy has a very distinctive features written all over his face and it was an honor to be able to draw him...!

The present ..Enrique Inglesias...

Hi all!

In my first post, I talked about reminiscing my childhood memories of drawing portraits...Well after finishing high school, I abruptly stopped drawing portrait, as there was lots of other important things to do...such as getting a degree, find a job, get married and so on...:-)

Then after about 15 years later, my hands suddenly feels itchy to get back into drawing again. I guessed it was my passion, and after all these years, the passion was still deep inside me, although it had been a long time since I picked up a pencil and draw..

I didn't know whether the talent is still in me, but nevertheless, I had to try...So, for my first celebrity portrait after years of neglect is ...Enrique Inglesias!



Well, what do you think of this portrait?
I know...I know.. I still need to polish up my skills:-)..there's still many elements missing in this portrait and I wish I will do better for the next one...

p/s - a little comment would be nice...:-D

My pencil portraits...

Hi all...

First time I started drawing portraits was when I was in high school (about 15 years ago...!). One day, an art teacher taught us all about how to draw portraits of people. It was just a brief explanation, but since then I got very drawn into portraits. I started to draw celebrity portraits and it became my pastime hobby. When you draw, it's as if you can see that they grew alive right in front of your eyes. And when you finished a portrait that looked similar to the real person, you will feel a sense of satisfaction like no other...

Below is several celebrity portraits which I had drawn when I was about 13-15 years old. I was only able to find these few portraits after rummaging through my old stuffs. The portraits looked old and a little bit blurry but it's still held many nostalgic memories for me in my childhood days...I want to share those memories with you too...
