Your pencil work is beyond words of praise. I wish I had half the talent you possess. What else can I say? Thanks for the moment.

Your sketches are amazing. I am sure that Lori will be absolutely thrilled to received this wonderful gift. You have captured this bubbly smile in the mouth and eyes and the lighting is wonderful. What marvelous talent you have!

    Thank you Marna. Such a kind review.
Comment from Paul270984


A very nice drawing which demonstrates great skill. This strikes me as something which looks better the further you are from the drawing - I mean that in a good way :)

Great work as always Linda!

Excellent drawing of this beautiful little girl, Linda. I like the way you show the difference between textures of the hair, skin and clothing. I love the expression on the little girl's face and you've captured her happy personality in this.

I don't know how you manage to get the darks to photograph so well - my pencil drawings always look washed out on the upload! Lovely light and shading shown. Really lovely portrait. Suzanne

    Thank you so much Suzanne. It is so hard to take a good picture with my Ipad. I send it to my computer and download it. Then I am able to upload it into fan art.
Comment from Life is but a dream.


Linda, Linda, Linda.....this is simply 6 stars and more.

The reason I say that so easily is not because the drawing itself is true to your talent, precision and detail but because you have captured the very soul of this child...this child to me is glowing with childhood innocence, glowing full of hope looking up. She is robust, well loved and we as viewers, can read so much story into your portrait.

I have no more stars than a paltry 5.....sorry.

Linda it is a truly stunning portrait I imagine Lori is immensely pleased by your beautiful work. The hair is so natural and you have replicated the georgeous eyes and smile wonderfully.

Comment from some1sangel


a wonder work of art. it's amazing you can do that with a pencil. i like the lighter background. the highlights and shadows are very well done. all the emotion is in those eyes and that smile. i see nothing to pick apart here. very well done.

Comment from Jean A Cormier


Lovely sketch of a darling little girl! One can see her personality popping off the screen! It is funny...you have chosen a very lively and happy scene of a child and I am posting a brooding and sad little girl done in B&W oils! I like the imperfections like her tiny teeth fly away hair-so much like real life! Nicely done! jean
