    Thank you Dave. Yeah, I saw this picture, and was blown away by it. I had to challenge myself to draw it. I love her. I got to know her while I was drawing, in a spiritual sense. I want to give it to my daughter for Christmas. Thank you so much for the Wows. Your reviews are always so fun. And thank you for the 6 stars.

Comment from Michael Whitson


Wow, this look just like an old time photograph. Where they had to hold still for about 30 seconds to a minute. Love the halo affect around her face and the glare off her cheek. Incredible details. What a beautiful young lady. Thanks for sharing. You are very gifted and I enjoy seeing what you come up with.
