Wow! Unbelievable. She is stunning. The eyes are so beautiful. Your work looks so much like a photo that it is just amazing. Three months is such a dedication and it really shows. Great lights, darkness, shadows. Just gorgeous!

If I would have taken a year, mine would not look 1/2 this good!

What a glorious drawing. Really. I'm just astounded... the face, is great and the folds of the fabric: superb.

...not enough superlatives!

Three months well spent in my view, lovely crisp detail in the dress. Her face with her eyes looking straight at you with the look of love. A very well drawn picture.

Comment from bcgrafiks
Exquisite piece. Incredible rendering technique. Terrific composition. Excellent detail work. The subjects facial expression further draws the viewer into this fine work, A very, very well done work. ( based on what I've seen of your work, everything would be a 5.5/6, but then I'd be out of them by monday.) :) Excellent work. Tremendous skills. thanks

You know, once you put something on paper, it is there forever. She is there forever. I drew this picture because of her beauty, and I am so thankful that this beauty comes across.

This lovely lady looks as if she stepped out of a Victorian novel. Wonderful drawing and warmth to this character.

What a wonderful use of your pencil, Linda! There is such a sense of romance in this beautiful woman, her tumbled hair, and her feminine apparel. Truly lovely.
