{Digital Art} It's a Good Morning! - Mandisa Portriat!

Reference Image - Copyrights goes to Mandisa

This is Mandisa, she pwns.
She made Simon Apologize.
We Love Mandisa.

Okay lets get to the art......

This is Mandisa, she's a Christian singer but she got her start on American Idol.
I aimed for the same goal as with my TobyMac Portriat, not "realistic" but you can tell it's the person!
This took me a while, and I lost motivation and inspiration but still managed to finish it. I went through editing the sketch a bunch of times but the final sketch is below.

Enjoy!

{Digital Art} Speak Life; TobyMac Portriat

This is my first portrait of a celebrity and my first art project being 18! wooo yay me!

Sketch One - Bigger Version

This is TobyMac, he's a Christian singer (pop hiphop stuff) more famous among us kids, hah!

Sketch 2 (Edit) - Bigger Version

But anyways I've only done one other portrait, it was of a lady's daughter and I didn't post to keep the confidence. I'm new to this kinda thing and coping people and photo references are my worst nightmare. I'm wasn't going for full realism or anything but I did want it to look like him!
I guess you'd say I wanted capture his essence. I was going to outline him in the end but I forgot so...oops! L0L


Anyways...Enjoy!

My video of this is going to be a little odd, I put the sketch in the wrong spot in the middle of the video, but it took so long to export that I didn't want to wait until tomorrow to upload it so I stuck with this version. - It also skips a lot of stuff, the laptop I use to draw on was getting laggy with MyPaint, GIMP, HyperCam and  Media player all at once so I turned HyperCam off.
