The way you drew her is interesting. The lighting on her is that of a studio shot. Instead of using an umbrella to soften the light. This light is harsh. Only an artist with knowledge of lighting could create a drawing like this. You are one of them. A six

Beautifully alluring. Great medium to create a very appealing image. I like the composition as it is playful and begs for attention. Excellent work:)

Really good, thought of Marilyn before I saw the title. The black and white gives it more age. Shadows and light done exquisitely. The look in her ey spot on. Thanks much.

Comment from Regina E.H-Ariel
Perfectly recognizable even without your title , she has a face guess which will be never forgotten - you drew her in a special mood, very expressive and handsome in technique - just black and white your defined every single part perfectly like her hair and her face such as it is - great shadow and light application, handsome excellent job

Is this Marilyn Monroe?
Well, this is an excellent rendition in b&w.
A refreshing change from the usual earth tones.
Excellent lighting & framing.
