Color Pencils !

Well this week we graduated to color pencils at the school. After drawing stick figures to find the human form we learnt about the Warli art form. We ended the class yesterday with a color pencil torso composition, playing with colored paper for background. A simple drawing with colored background seems more dramatic to me vs a more colorful one on white paper .. 

Cropping seems to do some good to the composition.. Do painters crop their paintings like photos..   Hmmm.

I like the one in the middle. There s so much compassion in those eyes..
Looking at fingers, why are they yellow? Bec u re in the yellow stage?:)I also like the gentleness with which she holds the flower.
In the bottom drawing, the hand and fingers look a bit bulky but interestingly enough, it doesn t bother me. I still like that hand.
