    Dear Monica,
    It is sad when such vibrant people leave this world. But they go on to be with the Savior. I was so blessed to be able to get to know Norma through drawing her face. It was actually like touching her soul. Thank you for your wonderful review.

A wonderful memorial for the family of the lady who looks as though she enjoyed life to the full. Your artwork is quite amazing as the hair and lines are so realistic. The forehead is a tad shiny but think that would be the lighting for photo not the artwork itself.

    Dearest Zily,
    From what I understand, Norma was amazing. I am so glad that you felt that by looking at my work.
Comment from Browncat


This woman looks like someone I would like to know! SO much joy in her face, which you captured perfectly. The son must have been very pleased to "hear" his mother's hearty laugh through your talented hands.

    Dear fellow artist,
    We do our work to bless others. This woman's passing was quite painful for her family. Being able to draw her for them was a great honor. Thank you for your wonderful review.

Your tallent at portrature is exceptional. I think your heart and feelings come through in a special way. This is a special view of a happy lady who looks full of joy. You have captured her in a very realistic way. Every part, wrinkles, smile, eyes and specs, hair and body form I think are just perfect.

Wow you sure have captured the spirit and essence of this happy woman... Linda. What a gift you have in giving to others as you find a measure of healing for your soul.
Amazing black & white image you have created from graphite which looks like a photo. So sharp, clear and life like. Such a pleasure to view your labour of love!

You know Linda, so many thoughts and feeling always well up in me when I see your works and think about all the tragedy you have been through. The Lord has a reason for everything. Sometimes that is of little comfort yet perhaps there is where faith comes in. I truly believe Linda that he tests HIS Special ones, like he did Abraham and you. Always as a result truly miraculous things happen. I see that reflected in you as you are so Giving to others and Creating Treasures that will be passed from generation to generation. Wonderful drawing Linda and keep doing what you are Meant To Do ~ Steve

    My Brother in the Lord,
    How honored I am that you should bestow on me this blessing. Losing my Alyssa just about destroyed me. I am now coming back to the light of Jesus. He never left me, but I fell beneath the ocean's raging and almost drowned. Faithful. Jesus is faithful. Even now I can't see the shore, but I know He will take me safely there. Thank you for your Christian fellowship. We are brother and sister for eternity.

Comment from Kathy Banich


Oh Linda - I've missed seeing your work. I'm back temporarily to simply check in. You are an angel! This is a phenomenal reproduction. I'm positive the family was overwhelmed with gratitude when you presented this to them. Your talent is breathtaking with realism, the scale, shadows, highlights, detail is simply put; "WOW". How long does a portrait like this take you to do? I'm so looking forward to see more of your "Awesomeness" in the weeks ahead. Kathy
