Drawing a face looking up. Day 10 of 29 faces

Drawing a face looking up. This to me is one of the trickiest angles for a face!
I could use more practicing ;o) This is also done in a 2x2 inches watercolor paper.
Basically I have all the elements placed up high in the head, show the bottom of the jaw and neck and the shadowing helps.
Since I am avoiding too many details, the less lines the better, and it still gives an impression of the looking-up angle.

  1. YOu're right, this is difficult angel! I find it hard to make eyes look open and still tilt the head downwards or upwards. And everythig else in different head positions is equally difficult :).

  5. You're right, that's a tricky angle, can't remember, if I've ever tried it.
    Must try it.
    You've done well, I especially love those bold black lines.

  7. Wonderfully proportioned. This is one of the fist angles my Nan taught me when I was little.
