Sometimes it appears that drawing a portrait from a mirror can pose a static effect yet when the features are reflected from a glass mirror it appears life-like but all depends upon from where you start and I started with the right eye today... It's a work in progress so far two attempts and may add watercolour later....question: when adding watercolour the image may alter as the pigments can alter the expression I suppose or does one need to work further on the preliminary drawing?
