This is a super piece, with excellent presentation. The subject is pleasing, as is the show of detail, and your work is presented nicely. Color/contrast is excellent, super artistic skills on show here once more. Very good indeed! Alex.

Comment from ducilla
I don't suppose you need more people telling you how great the technique is for this at this point..That is obvious..It is the emotion and feel of the work that hit me first.The faraway look in her eyes and the attentive lover . A telling glance is very close to writing a short story at times. ..It is a tribute to you and your pencil to be able to show such emotion..Thanks for the view...Dennis

Dear Dennis,
When I draw, I will be honest and say that I don't actually know what I am doing. I just draw what I see, and pray a lot. God does the rest. I do want the soul and spirit of the emotions will show through. Praise God, they have. Thank you for your wonderful review. It means so much to me.

I assume this has been done in pencil? You do not mention anything about the picture in your notes, which is a pity. This is a really nice drawing. I really like the feel of this and your composition as well as your use of the medium. Nice one. A lot of thought has gone into this, I can see. Robin

Dear Robin,
I saw a photo of a new movie coming out, "Sleeping Beauty" and I challenged my self to draw it. It was very difficult, and it took me so long to do. My father died just before I began this drawing, and it was hard to get back into the creative realm. My father was an artist, and my greatest mentor. Losing him was a great heaviness of my soul. This picture is a tribute to his confidence in my ability. I love him more than I can say.
Thank you for your wonderful review.

Very beautiful romantic art. The muted tones give it a feeling of antiquity. Excellent detail, story telling, and design. You use the canvas well. I like the total composition. It looks like he is totaly into her but she is more focused on another. Thank you for sharing your beautiful artwork. Mcarrera

I believe she is bewildered by the whole awakening from near death by the eternity of true love. Rescued from the grasp of darkness by another's soul. Thank you for your wonderful review.

A fantastic piece of art. I have been away from the site so I am just catching up. The details are so intense. I have done pencil work like this and I know how many hours it takes. You have created sexual feelings in your creation. Just top art, congratulations. sandy

If you look at your painting you will notice that you have the chap all sex fired and you have the girl turning her head away as if she is not interested or it is just one big bore.
Certainly tells a story.
