Heyy everyone, my name is Maria Carragher and I've been drawing (off and on) ever since I could hold a pencil basicly, BUT I am really trying to learn how to draw realistic portraits. I am in first year University at the moment (going to be a teacher) so I draw when I have free time. I am starting to draw alot more and take it more seriously. I know i'm no pro at this, lol don't worry. My goal is just to improve with practice.

I would really like to improve, so if any of you have tips to give me, on any of my drawings, please go ahead! I need peoples oppinions to help me get better. I'd like to someday get really good at drawing from a photograph.

I will usually post pencil drawings, but sometimes I might be in a colourful mood and post something in pastel.

For those of you who have been kind to me, favoriting and watching me, even after just posting one single thing, THANKYOU, it means alot to me.
