TBT Drawings of Elsa (Updated)

I meant to do a Throwback Thursday, but I couldn't decide what picture to use, and by the time I did, it was too late, so here is a throwback a day late... :).

Drawing of Elsa from nine months ago...
And from today, :). 

 I think I did her face too long and straight, so I may have to fix that, but I hope you enjoyed! :).

Update: After I posted this, I did words and a snowflake, :).

How to Paint a Weeping Willow

 This one won't be as detailed, but here are the basics...


I took a paper towel and smeared brown paint on the paper.

Added branches.

Small black strokes going down...

Larger dark green ones....

Then I  put a brown "frame" on it. 



And done!

Throwback Thursday:

This is a picture of the Titanic that I drew over three years ago: 


And here is one I drew on Tuesday:

 This was my first picture to be done with shading pencils. Even though I have done shaded drawings, those were done with a normal pencil. So, this was a fun picture, :).

Drawing Of Toothless

I did this drawing of Toothless from How To Train Your Dragon today, :). This was my first time shading with color pencils. At first I did it on a piece of paper, and I was going to do splashes of watercolor paint around in different colors, but that didn't work out too good. I cut the head out, and glued into my black sketchbook, then redid the neck. I'm hoping to sometime redo him and do the watercolor idea, but for now, here is the picture. Hope you enjoy it, and that it gives you some inspiration, :).

How To Draw Braids

My dad taught me how to draw braids, :). He is really good at drawing, and is also a professional photographer, so he is good at remembering the little details in things, :).

So, here is the way I learned is the best way to draw braids, :).

Draw your first braid....



And add another one on to that.


Continue down the braid, getting narrower as you go down.   


Here's what it looks like now: 


 Darken  the outlines of each braid.

 

 Fill in the braids, leaving a highlight in the middle of each one. 

                                     
                              And you're done!

  I hope it helps! :).
