Hi Linda

Wow! What a beauty this is. She looks like she's having a pleasant dream indeed! I like the depth of her skin tones which makes the room behind stretch away in the distance. Beautiful. Virtual sixer! R

Great initial impact. You have a beautiful subject here. Love the smile on her face. The detail is excellent, especially her face which is hard to do. Very nicely done.

    Dearest LM. I so appreciate your wonderful review. I am so glad that you liked her face. It is a beautiful woman, and I am happy that I was able to portray her as such.

If I had extra stars would have given them to you for this very natural portrait of the dreaming lady. The tones you have achieved with pencil is amazing. The hair looks so natural. Beautiful work and congratulations on your recent marriage. :) Mary

    My Molly, thank you so much. I tried so hard to express the softness of this moment and the beauty of this woman.
Comment from Barb Baker


Linda, I absolutely love this portrait!!!
I think the shading is awesome!! The girls hair is so lifelike( my nemesis),and even shiny looking.
You feel so sleepy just looking at her and oh boy she is a beautiful woman to be sure.
I love every last thing about this drawing and it certainly deserves more than a 6 but since that is all that is aloud I will give you that with the hope of giving you a 10!!
Great work once again,Linda.
