What a stunning portrait showing the beautiful Marilyn the shading and pose are perfect. Candlelight in background adds to impact. Caught the seductive mood perfectly. :) Mary

Gorgeous drawing. Beautiful skin tone, looks radiant. Nice textures shown as well. Awesome work deserving of a six (which I am all out of). Cyber 6. :) ~Alveria

You have certainly captured her beauty and also I think, a little of the vulnerability that so few people saw. You pencil work is so wonderful, I really have no business reviewing it, but this one really caught my eye. Good job.

I think it is this way most people remember Marilyn Monroe, even if she was a lot more than just this. I suppose it is almost unnecessary to tell you how well you have been drawing her, but I will do anyway. I especially like the contrast between Marilyn's very white skin and the dark background, because it adds drama to the scene. I suppose it is a candle we see on the left, but I think it could have been left out. I do however appreciate that this is a matter of taste.

As always this is done paying very good attention to details, and also all the shadings are well done. It is also great textures to be seen both in the background, the rug and the dress.

The drawing is nicely framed and Marilyn has got a perfect placement. This of course makes for a good and well balanced composition. Indeed a beautiful and well done drawing Linda.

This is not my style of art but your ability to design any character in such perfect way , that it seem people or characters you have chosen are just in front - excellent expressive portrait in this seductive invitation - amazing shadow and light application, your light influx on her sin just enhances her entire being

super detail work - a true realistic piece of art, fantastic in hues and expressive style, well done, thanks for sharing

    Regina, I am honored that you reviewed my work, and this isn't your style. That means a lot. Thank you so very much.

    I like your work also in this one - it is perfect - but not the seductive style more the romantic one loll - you are a fantastic artist and reviewing for me means to come from a neutral place, xoxoxo always welcome

Comment from Kizz


Wow! This skillful rendering is a testament to your talent using a pencil. This image has it all. Deftly applied pencil strokes have created realistic shadow, highlights, and texture. The composition perfectly captures Marilyn's seductive persona.

Fantastic work! Kudos:)

What a wonderful work Linda. As many of your works, my humble review and thoughts simply miss the mark. One cannot describe the sublime. My thoughts on this rival those of your "Mary". Not quite, as there is none to compare to that work of Art. Thank you for sharing to others that have been given the gift to "see'. So well done Linda ~ Steve
