One of the most difficult things for a painter is to portray a face, because you could result in a similar or very similar image of the person portrayed or you could result in the face of the Hunchback of Notre Dame.

I have made many mistakes when portraying a face, my wife has insisted that I portray her and I am looking for a photograph that captures an ideal angle to portray her and not fail in the attempt.

One of the most difficult parts of a face are the eyes, the brightness, the shadows, the pupils, the nuances, it is something that is not easy to portray, much less in watercolor.

Remember that I am an autodidact and I have observed publications of true artists who often repeatedly practice the image of the eyes.

For this reason, on this occasion I bring you the image of "the eye"

For this I chose an image of a blue eye that actually looks like the image of the planet earth in its pupil.

Blue eyes, in my opinion, are the most beautiful; only 8% of the world's population have them, so if you have blue eyes, you are among that statistic. Unlike the brown eyes that make up 80%, I belong to this statistic.

Something that I was able to learn today about the color of the pupils, which depends on the quality and quantity of melanin, if you have brown eyes you have more melanin in your pupils than people with blue eyes.

Do you have beautiful blue eyes?

Una de las cosas más difíciles para un pintor es retratar un rostro, debido a que pudieras tener como resultado una imagen similar o muy parecida de la persona retratada o tener como resultado la cara del jorobado de Notre Dame.

Yo he cometido muchísimos errores al retratar un rostro, mi esposa me ha insistido en que la retrate y estoy en búsqueda de una fotografía que capte un ángulo que sea ideal para retratarla y no fallar en el intento.

Uno de las parte más difíciles de un rostro son los ojos, el brillo, la sombra, las pupilas, los matices, es algo que no es fácil de retratar y mucho menos en acuarela.

Recuerden que soy un autodidacta y he observado publicaciones de verdaderos artistas que suele practicar reiteradamente la imagen de los ojos.

Por tal motivo en esta ocasión les traigo la imagen de “el ojo”

Para ello escogí una imagen de un ojo azul que en realidad parece en su pupila la imagen del planeta tierra.

Los ojos azules a mi parecer son los más hermoso solo el 8% de la población mundial los posee, así que si tienes ojos azules estas entre esa estadística. A diferencia de los ojos marrones que representa 80%, yo pertenezco a esta estadística.

Algo que pude aprender el día de hoy sobre el color de las pupilas, que dependen de la calidad y cantidad de melanina, si tienes ojos marrones posee más melanina en tus pupilas que las personas que tienen ojos azules.

tiene tu hermosos ojos azules?

Below I show you a photographic sequence of its preparation.

Eyes were always interesting subject for artists. I find blue and blue-green eyes the most interesting in painting, especially in watercolour. You did a good work on different values f blue and that highlight makes it lively.
