This is so beautiful, touching and gentle!! Excellent focus of drawing!
The depth of thought comes through in great clarity!
The curled hair falling gently - the roses in hair - the soft ruffles of dress skirt - dreamy, yet real - so amazingly beautiful!
What a great photo - filled with memories ... memories beautiful ...
Thank you for posting this most stunningly beautiful "fairy bird" drawing!
Thoughts and prayers reach out to you, LInda

I have no idea what size this is but you do wonderful things with a pencil! Very detailed and almost photo realistic. Did you use a projector to draw from? Really exceptional drawing.

    Lonnie, this is an 11x14. I don't use a projector. I truly appreciate the 6 star rating, and your very kind review. Thank you.

Absolutely lovely! The only possible rating for this is 6 stars- everything about it from the details in the dress and flowers to the girl's expression is perfect! Love the contrast and the textures in the hair as well. As always, your technique astounds me! :) Good luck in the contest- I'm sure this is a winner.

a beautiful piece of art for the June Challenge. Your talent surpasses everything..The emotion,the expression you achieve not just facially but in the whole demeanours of your characters you put on canvas. I particularly like the hints of colour you have put in the little bird ..so subtle yet creative beauty. The detail is just amazing across this whole piece of art...Good Luck Linda and thank for sharing

This is absolutely gorgeous, you are such a talented artist. I lot your work, which is why I'm a fan. I hope someday I will be able to draw half as good as you. Your details in this are so perfectly done. The colors that you achieve with just graphite is amazing. I can't wait to see what's next. Keep up the good work. Your daughter is watching over you. God bless

Oh my goodness! When I saw the title, I was eager to open this work... and SO glad I did. What a feminine, gentle, romantic image. I love that there is a hint of color to the little bird. Masterfully done!

    Thank you so much Snow. I am glad that you liked the hint of color. I had to think of something to make the bird stand out a little. I didn't want him to get lost. Your review is heartwarming.
