A brilliant portrait drawing in a super realistic style. The story behind this lovely work in touching. The graceful pose, light and shadows make this compulsive viewing. Thanks for sharing!

I have so missed you and your Wonderful Gift. The natural glow emanating from her says it all: She is Home and waiting for the rest to share in her bliss.

The greatest gift she can receive is the grief that is offered by those she touched. No greater tribute than to miss her very much. Well done Good and Faithful Servant ~ Steve

    Steve, it has been a while. Got into a funk. I think I am coming out of it now. Thank you for this amazing review.

    Hey Linda.I know how you feel. I found out that I had a stroke at some point or another. The symptoms that come and go are loss of balance, lack of concentration, depression and mood swings. It has been a tough time lately. I got so down that I deleted all my FAR photos and decided to only post on occasion and then not pump it up, Just want to be one of the crowd. No more trying to get into the top 5 or any of that foolishness.

    Sorry to dump on you. Hope you are doing better. Your Gifts Still need to be sent forth. We are not to keep them even if we don't feel like sharing them. I guess we have to remember God's Gifts are NOT About Us. HE has Much larger plans.

    Hang in there Linda ~ Steve

Comment from Lucas Sizov


Linda, there's a touchy story behind this portrait. Linda, you did it well, it looks classic. You were able to make a drawing from the photograph of the special person. She went home and this is a great hope! I'm sure she will be remembered. You have a tragic story of your life, too. I knew that from your portfolio notes. I'm glad you are a Christian! That should give you a great hope too, Linda! God bless you!

Comment from Danielle Andrukitis


Wow! This is absolutely breathtaking! You did an amazing job with this. The shading is excellent, and it is very realistic. Hands can be difficult to draw but you nailed it. I am sure your friend now has artwork that she will always cherish.
