"My Favorite Artists" Blog Series #2

Are you returning from yesterday? If you are, THANK YOU! Are you a new reader of my blog? THANK YOU TOO! Any reason you are reading my blog, THANK YOU! This is #2 in my blog series about my Favorite Artists. Now, keep in mind that these are not in any particular order. Each artist is equally as talented no matter their "skill level" or medium of choice.

Today's featured artist is another that I found on DeviantArt named Rebecca Blair (DeviantArt username, r-becca.) She is an amazingly talented traditional medium artist, using marker, pen, pencil, and pastels. She now mainly posts her art on her Facebook fanpage.

Rebecca's "Alice Cullen" 
Ravenna
The first piece of Rebecca's that I saw was her fanart drawing of Ashley Greene as Alice Cullen. I have seen a LOT of Twilight related fanart but this one stood out because of how much it looks like a photo. Rebecca's ability to make the eyes stand out and the hair look so realistic is mind-blowing! This is the drawing that made me hit the "watch" button on her DeviantArt page. Another fanart drawing of hers that I fell in love with is her "Ravenna" drawing. It is almost realistic but kind of has her cartoonish touch to it. It's so beautiful!


Rebecca does some realistic drawings and some cartoonish drawings. A few that I love are her fanart drawings of characters like Aurora and Maleficent from Sleeping Beauty, Poison Ivy and Rapunzel. I especially love the one of Aurora because she added tattoos to her arms. :)

From time to time Rebecca will do a black and white drawing and then add color to it later. I'm not sure if she does it digitally or not but either way, they always turn out to be stunning.



I wish that I had her talent! This girl is a true master of her craft! She posts these gorgeous drawings almost everyday that she calls, "midnight sketches" or "midnight doodles" and they are so beautifully detailed and magnificent that I'm sitting there staring at the screen thinking why my drawings that take weeks don't look as impressive as her so-called, "sketches". ;) hehehe She is a true artist!
