Jane fox and me

https://www.brainpickings.org/2013/11/25/jane-the-fox-and-me/

Written by Fanny Britt and illustrated by Isabelle Arsenault — who also gave us the magnificent Virginia Wolf, one of the best children's books of 2012 — this masterpiece of storytelling is as emotionally honest and psychologically insightful as it is graphically stunning. What makes the visual narrative especially enchanting is that Hélène's black-and-white world of daily sorrow springs to life in full color whenever she escapes with Brönte.

Assignment by sept 17th sat
Keep continue working on your doodle ( with  text) life  drawings.
Goal :3-5 doodles and 5-10 people

Find an actor and draw 3 expression.Laugh(happy), angry and sad.

Let's find actors who look similar to your characters and use their photos as reference.  After you find them, you may collect their expressions, and study and draw. Dont worry about style , and copy as much as you can. Drawings  don't have to look exactly same as photos , however, let's try realistic style this week.
You will modify your character later. Please don't worry if you can't find right actor. This is just study. Find some one similar to your character's  age , race and etc...

Have fun!

Girl using a computer. I drew this without reference and it still looks a bit awkward... oh and I had problems using turboscanner. The B&W version would barely show up so I had to do photo. Maybe my phone just has a bad camera...
