am I blue?

I was reading this book from the library on photographic lighting. There is this picture in it which I loved as soon as I saw it. I wanted to draw it immediately upon seeing it.

365-173


It's interesting cuz the eye looks wrong yet I drew it as it actually is in the photograph. She is looking down which is why the eye is longer than an eye normally would be. Plus, she has her eye liner extended so again, it extends her eye. The eye almost looks like an eye found in older art.

I liked this image due to the sharp contrast from all the white to the features of the model. The blue hair came from using tungsten white balance on the camera - who knows what colour her hair actually is.
