absolutely beautiful rendering of Marilyn Monroe, I truly love it,you've captured her youthful look,her cute sensual face that became such an icon and alot of soldiers dreams,if this was around in the forties it would be a pin-up.soft hue in color is excellent, eyes ummm what can I say,nose and lips the same way,six stars from me.thank-you!

Another Outstanding work. Your ability to find the human qualities of your subjects is consistently amazing. The composition and lighting are magnificent. For this particular work, there is something about her lips that are most interesting as they have a different texture than the rest of the work.Its almost as if you actually applied lipstick (can one still say lipstick?) to the work. Stunning!!! Thanks

Beautiful drawing Lady Linda!
The details on her hair and facial features are superb. I only wish for more light/ details in her eyes.
Beautiful work as usual ;)

Such talent! Softness has been perfectly realized in this skillful rendering of Marilyn...

*Outstanding aesthetic quality (soft yet realistic portraiture, tonal quality, shading, blending)

*Perfect selection and application of materials (to showcase the delicate features of this iconic image)

*Originality (stands out as unique and original talent)

*Interest (image catches and maintains the viewer's interest)

Bravo:)

Linda,

How incredible your talent is! This has a stunning overall impression
and you've captured Marilyn very well. Love the soft lines of her hair
that blend into the background. Gorgeous!

Linda, as beautiful as Marilyn was you made her even more so. The shading is so extremely delicate it's hard to even imagine how you do it.
What a gift to share with us, who don't just look at the image but how it was done.
