Artistic Abilities: Hipster Girl

Artistic Abilities: Hipster Girl

This weeks drawing is a picture I call "Hipster Girl" because she has pink hair with a flower crown and it looks like she is hipster. The picture I used for inspiration was from the app "We Heart It". The materials I used were my Strathmore drawing book, a pencil, and Crayola colored pencils. I started off by sketching the body and face. Then I started to sketch in the bun and the flowers on it. Once I got it the way I liked, I added in the little details and made it perfect. This drawing didn't have very much shapes or details to it, so it wasn't very difficult to sketch. When I finished the sketch, I took my colored pencils and started coloring the flowers. I then took a tan colored pencil and shadowed the body. I added black to the eyelashes and traced the body with a black colored pencil very lightly. Then I took a light pink color and started to add in the hair. To make the hair look real, I would put my pencil at the bottom of the hair and lightly stroke the pencil upwards. I would continue to do this for the whole bun. Once I finished with the pink, I took my black colored pencil and on the bottom and top of the bun I added very little black to make shadows. At the end I took my black and pink colored pencil and began to add a few pieces of hair on the bottom of the bun to make the hair look messy and to add a little detail to it.

This is the final product of my drawing. I finished it off by signing my name and the date. This drawing was done a couple months ago.
