Your talent is amazing. I know I have probably said that before. I feel guilty giving any of your work a five star rating! You are so good at creating realistic photograph quality portraits. What an awesome skill to have :)

Comment from Dick Lee Shia


Fantabulous portrait oozing with innocence...oblivious with what's going around in this crazy world!

An artistic rendition.
Fine facial details.
The table design rendition is beyond compare!

Monochromatic colors. Excellent details & features. Impressive strokes & textures.

The winner in my book!

Thanks for sharing...

This is very impressive. Very detailed Linda. I like the shadowing and skin tone on the baby. Looks realistic. Great work. I'm sure this piece will do well in the Baby Art contest. Your very talented. Good luck in the contest.

Linda, this is incredible! Beautiful baby girl from yesterday, she is precious in her little bonnet and smock style dress, she wears little white t strapped baby shoes, I like her position on the table and her turned head,her face is well shaped and structured her expression is so sweet, features are very well rendered , I love her heart shaped lips. I like the way you show the lighting here and the black and white scale supports the yesterday feel. Very beautiful work, this is testament to your amazing artistic ability.very well presented, impressive to view!

Comment from Suzy Marie


Absolutely amazing. The baby is so realistic, I feel I could reach right into the painting to squeeze those little cheeks. The shading is perfect, everything is balanced- it truly likes like a vintage photograph instead of a drawing. Amazing work!

Comment from Dan Hancock


What a beautiful drawing of a young baby. This hearkens back to an era when children were posed in very simple clothing and booties. I know because my parents did this for my sister. I really like the sepia tone to this image it gives it an almost photographic feel. Lastly the baby's eyes just draw you in. Wonderful presentation. Well done.
