Practice (Week 4 LFI project work)

Below are two versions of one reference photo from my Let's Face It 2022 class - Week 4 module. The first one (bottom) was a fairly quick drawing. The eye on the right looks a bit too large and the nose shading isn't right. I spray set it without making any alterations.

This morning, however, I did a Google image search for my name and found my photo linked to a totally different blog than my own! It is possible I didn't mark my file with the online photo-hosting site as private, but I didn't expect this to happen. I don't know whether marking it private would have actually averted the situation, but I'm not waiting to find out. I eliminated my membership to that online photo-hosting service today and caution anyone to be careful with uploading images to the internet . If you read the terms of agreement at many sites, you'...
