"i'm new here.."

hey everyone,i've been looking at some of the art in this forum for a while and i really like it,there are so many talented people in here..i'm kinda beginner and i think it will be a very good place for me to get professional advice somtimes..

i have 2 drawings and i would like to get your openion on them..they both are done with pencils..

i like drawing portraits specially facial expressions..so,the (first) picture i made like 5-6 month ago..

and after visting this site and looking at some of the good artwork in here i tried to do something with little more detail..so i made this (second) picture and just finished it like 2 days ago..

You've captured the emotion extremely well. I tried a few emotion pictures myself but they didn't turn out nearly as well as this, but they were mostly quick sketches. This is really expressive work.

Welcome to the forum!

I don't care for the 1st pic that much, but the second one really grabs me.

Looking forward to seeing more too.

Welcome to the forum
I like the second one

WELCOME!
I agree with Bob, don't care for the first one (just a little to extreame for my taste), your second one though really tugs at your heart strings. You have captured obviously a very painful moment for this man and the viewer is caught in that moment. I think that is a goal for an artist, to really "grab hold" of the viewer.

I was just wondering, did you find these pictures somewhere, if so whereabouts, or were these from your imagination?

thanks everyone for the comments and the warm welcome..glad u liked the second picture..
i don't care that much about the first one either..lol
it's the second one that i was actually trying to get critique on..
i used photo references for both drawings..i have the original photo of the second drawing,if anyone intersted i'll post it....but i think i lost the photo referece of the first drawing because i made it a while ago..
ok,thanks again everyone for looking at them,any other comments or ideas are always welcome..
