There's a big difference between seeing and observing. Seeing allows you to recognize, however observing allows you to understand reality.
That's why practicing proportions is so important. When you're looking at an image and analyzing how items are related to one another, you get a sense of how that object is built up. You get a sense of how things fit together. You get a sense of proportions.
This ability is what helps us make a image especially a face look real.
I still struggle with this, but I'm happy to say there have been some big improvements over the years.

I'm very happy with this drawing. I think it turned out good. One of the best things about drawing is when you start drawing, and then the artistic impressions kick in. This portrait is hands down a clear case of that.
It does not look exactly like the reference photo, but the brush strokes look messy in a good way. These drawing are cool because they're not just about looking real but they're also about capturing a feeling.

In this drawing I was playing around with a soft brush technique. It's very different from what I'm used to, so it took a while to get the hang of it. I definitely haven't achieved any measure of great success with it. However I did see why people like it so much.
This technique is great in that it allows you to focus on broad areas of shade, and then use a smaller brush to delve in to the details. This technique forces you to work at scale and you can't be tempted to want to jump to detail. The big bonus here is that you ensure that the structural values are right. This is super important when working on the foundational aspects of your drawing.

I don't think that I did this image justice. I do think that the drawing turned out good, but there's just enough wrong with it to keep annoying me. I usually revisit my work to learn from my mistakes, and in this drawing I picked up quite a few mistakes.
The left cheek is too wide, the eyes aren't smokey enough and the hair could be more chaotic. It's weird because at the time when I was drawing this, I thought it was near perfect. Yet time always reveals imperfections. And time is an amazing teacher.

This drawing didn't quite turn out looking like Megan Fox, but I was happy that the proportions and values look good. There are so many subtle characteristics in this portrait that sometimes I find it hard to draw them all well.
With portraits like these, if I get a few subtle things wrong then the portrait can indeed look like someone completely different; as is the case here. These end up being great learning experiences though.

I am happy with this drawing, but I don't think I got the likeness perfect. However I am pretty pleased about drawing a South African Vegan. It's great to see veganism growing from strength to strength in South Africa. The future is looking bright!
