portraits in b/w watercolour

Working on a few jobs concurrently.
These portraits have to be completed before I can concentrate on the job for Pico Art.
These 2 ladies are the same person, just that one with tudung, while the other without.
She will be sending this portrait to his husband, who is working in South Africa currently, as a surprise gift.
Husband with 2 women....haha!

These images of the portraits were snapped with my digital camera.
Not very well-taken, as the paper warpped, due to the water applied to it during the painting process.
I can't mount it on a thicker card for her, since she needs to roll it up for easy handling and shipping to South Africa.

Indian couple portraits in charcoal

I have changed the usual paper to pastel paper for this couple portraits.
And I used a paper stump to aid me in the shading. It turned out finer, but I wished it could be better.


Took me about 7 hours+ to complete it.

The reference phote was seriously underexposed.
Bothof their faces were in teh shade.
I have quite a hard time putting in the different shades.
