Use the pen tool to create organic shapes on top of your original image (as demonstrated in the video).
For your shapes change the following:
fill colors - Highlights on cheek and eyes
transparency- almost every aspect of the fact highlights (or shadows) I used SOME form of transparency, usually 60-78%
stroke colors - Green and brown on clothes, Eye highlights
Stroke sizes (as demonstrated in the video): Wrinkles on head are 1pt~, clothes are 14pt, some features on face I manually traced in, around her noses right nostril
Use at least 2 brushes from the brush library to add texture to your drawing. Wrinkles are a flat brush. Hair and eye brows are a texture (in Illustrator)
Fully complete a colored, traced drawing from your original images (focus on 1 main subject, no need to do background for the pop quiz).
**Post the completed drawing AND the original image to your blog.
