Le fabuleux destin de Amélie Poulain was and still is one of my favourite movies. How could you not compleatly fall in love with the main charachter, the sweetest of them all, Amélie, played by Audrey Tautou. Since then she kind of disappeared, for me anyhow. I've only seen her in one movie after this and that was the Da Vinci Code a couple of years ago, but it wasn't quite the same now, was it?
So in the line of my drawing experiences, i sincerly wanted my portrait of Amélie to be somewhat close to perfection. I did this portrait twice because the first one didn't quite please me. The second one is the one above - still, i can see it's not quite what i had in mind, having gained the sweetest Amélie with a few extra kilos around the cheeks. Poor Amélie, i think she just ate too much during christmas....didn't we all?
Still feel i'm getting there, slowly. Just need some more practice, just need more time!
Back to school and routines this week, have a wonderful and brand new monday!
