1st layer

You see how wonky her eyes are in this photo? I didn’t catch that at the time, but it’s a common mistake I make whenever I sketch out a face while sitting down with the panel or canvas flat on the table in front of me. 

second layer

As you can see in this photo, the eyes looked okay from where I was sitting. But, stand up, and look down on it, and see what happens? 

If you’re having trouble with uneven eyes the best thing to do is to sketch with your substrate in an upright position. Or stand up as you’re drawing, and look down as you draw. Not the most comfortable positions for drawing, but it does help. I’m letting it dry a couple days before I fix it. I’ll show you what layer 3 looks like when I’m finished.

Apologizes to everyone on my blog mailing list for the incident that occurred last week. The Jetpack plugin I use to send out the emails had a hiccup, and started spewing out old blog posts from 2012 and 2013. Really bizarre. Tech support is looking into the problem.
