Okay, so today I decided to dive into the world of “sara scheffler”. I’d seen some buzz about it, and, well, I was curious. I had absolutely no idea what to expect, it was like stepping into a dark room.
Getting Started
First things first, I needed to figure out, what exactly is sara scheffler. My first move, as always, fire up the old search engine. I started with simple search, just the name itself, “sara scheffler”.
I started browsing, clicking, and scrolling. After filtering out I found that sara scheffler is an artist, specializes in creating lifelike portrait and figure drawings. And wow, her artworks are amazing.
Digging Deeper
I went on a clicking spree. Her style is incredible, and the way she captures light and shadow is just insane.
Trying It Myself
I picked up my old sketchbook, the one gathering dust, and a * hand felt a bit *’s been a while since I attempted anything like this.
- Finding a Reference:First,I found some picture on website. I wanted something I could stare at for a while without getting bored.
- The Basic Outline:I started really lightly, just mapping out the general shapes. It looked like a blob, I’m not gonna lie. But I kept telling myself, “trust the process, trust the process…”.
- Adding Details:Slowly, I started adding more defined lines, focusing on the, the curve of the mouth. I erased A LOT. My eraser was definitely getting a workout.
- Shading (the scary part): This is where things got real. I tried to observe where the light was hitting in the picture and mimic that with my pencil. It was a lot of squinting and smudging.
The Result
Okay, it’s definitely not a masterpiece. It doesn’t look exactly like my reference. But you know what? I did it. I spent a couple of hours pushing myself, trying something new, and actually creating something. And that feels pretty damn good.
I’m not going to become a professional artist overnight, but this little experiment reminded me how much I enjoy the process of drawing. I might even keep at it, who knows?
