2017 02 24 - Mary Jane

Still trying to do a line drawing and have been using the link Babs @onewing gave me yesterday after my fail with Finlay. Still not sure this works - what do you think?

This is my gorgeous great niece Mary Jane. For Flash of Red February. Definitely best on black!!

Many thanks for your great comments on yesterday's images - much appreciated!!
@onewing Babs this is the best I have come up with today after many efforts. I have decided not all photos will convert well to a line drawing!! Many thanks for the link - I did struggle with PS but got there in the end!!

Looks good to me

This is great Pam and a Fav. I think you will have to give me some lessons!

I think this is very effective and I used to be an art teacher, if that gives you more confidence!

This is just beautiful Pam! It certainly presents as a perfect pencil sketch. She's such a sweet-faced little gal...be sure to show her this! She'll love it!

@Weezilou Thanks Louise I couldn't make up my mind if it looked like a drawing or a faded photo. Now I know the basics I will be trying again!!

Lovely portrait

I think this looks excellent. I'm amazed you did this in PS. I thought it was actually a pen/pencil drawing. Good job.

Oh Pam I love this. Know what you mean about not all portraits able to convert. I did one ages ago of one of my grandsons and he just looked scary. Must give it another go one day. fav.

The eyes are so real

Love this!

Sweet portrait:)!

Looks great. Well done.

This one's worked much better Pam. I've found some subjects work better than others. Angular structures are much easier than the soft curves of nature.

nicely done

This one does work -- I think the lighter hand is more effective in the long run.

Works great by me! I thought Finlay's version was pretty good as well. Give yourself some credit!
