She taught us how to draw eyes, how to tilt heads and sketch gestures (very clever techniques).
Our homework was to practise these and then have a go at drawing a full length person (scary!)
I've only got as far as the shoulders up to now, but as I've never been brave enough to draw people before I'm quite proud of myself.
If you know Suzi's work you'll see we are copying her style to start off with. We will eventually combine our drawings with background textures, patterned papers, embellishments etc.
Homework
My very first attempts at drawing faces - the course is 8 weeks long, so hopefully I'll improve!!

Oh WOW WOW! Haven't you been having fun? Brilliant start, can't wait to see more.
I wish I could take part in Suzi's class....just not feasible for me right now. :(
Looks like you're doing a great job so far! I especially like the last one (in the blue shirt!)
Wow, these are fab. Can't believe you've never drawn faces/people before. Infact, so impressed I've just signed up to Suzi's class too...eek! So thank you so very much for telling us about it.

Oh Linda! These sketches are amazing. I so admire you for taking this workshop and will enjoy hearing about your progress. I'm off to have a look at this site!
Linda, these are super sketches, I can't wait to see more. I've never done faces except Santa faces, which are so fun. I admire you learning new things.
Hi Linda, I love what you are doing in your Suzi Blu classes. I have watched a few of her technique tips on youtube and they were fantastic. I didnt know you could do online classes so I am off to check them out...thanks so much for sharing and you are doing a FANTASTIC job with these faces. Cant wait to see more.
They look great. I am just running through art blogs and I came to your site. I think your dolls look great. Keep it up.
Smooches
They are great
