Little kid value project

This is my value project. I like the attempt at it, personally I don't like the way the hair looks. I am not really good at doing hair but I think I captured the way the hand looked. I did end up cutting off the left side of the head where the hair on the head was the worst. I would like to try and redo this piece with a little more patience and a better understanding of how to do hair. Overall I like this piece and then he contrast between the dark darks and the lights in the hair where the light reflects off the back of the head.

Water color bird

This I my water color piece of a bird, up until I started to do the background, which I don't have a picture of because it looks so bad. I did this piece in the bad watercolor paper because I constantly bounce around ideas and never stay on one thing, but I stayed on this one. Sadly by the time I chose to stay with it I was already on the bad paper and it was too late to stop. Overall I think it was a good second attempt to use watercolor. I just feel like it could have been so very good if I had decent watercolor paper. But I enjoyed doing this piece up until the end. I feel I should work on my lights and shadows when using watercolor. But it was an overall victory.
