The Princess concept portrait

This is a quick drawing of a model with very delicate beauty. I always find that so hard to draw because it is based on subtle and delicate things like the skin and hair color or angles of the face that are not dramatic or pronounced. The edges of her lips are blurry and not well-defined and I risk ruining the feeling by putting ink lines there.

This 10-minute sketch reminds me so much of those issues and, when I take it to the next level of detail, I have to be very careful about how I work that into the concept painting.
