Such a beautiful piece of art,you are so talented! The expression on this sleeping baby is precious,your shadings make her come to life;I especially like the details you have put into the bow and shirt,they actually have appearance of fabric. Stunning realism,and real plaza sure to view!

This baby is indeed precious. You have drawn her beautifully. I am impressed by the accurateness of detail and shading. Her expression is heart warming. She feels save and is deep drawn into the dreams of the innocent. The portrait is expertly composed and framed.

Oh my goodness!! You are so talented! That little baby looks so real! I love everything about it. Her little face is perfect! You shading brings out her features as if she were real. The little bow mouth looks just like my granddaughter's did. I too am a Christian. I am sorry for your loss. I can't even imagine. The beauty that you have given to your friend is a gift from God.

As always your portraits done in graphite pencils are par excellence. I like this work because it is so classical in its concept and execution. The light and shadows are perfect. Thanks for sharing!Bravo!

A nice presentation with good composition and tonal control.It is not your usual standard as I have never marked your work under 5,in fact 6 but this one is different as the lines on the subjects face are too hard as if they are outlined,particularly around the nose making it too defined which doesn't work for a young child as it causes the face to look older than it really is.unlike the softness that you have maintained in the nails which is brilliant.Overall a beautiful piece of work

    Receiving constructive criticism is so helpful and needed. Sometimes our greatest efforts just can?t pull the piece together.
Comment from michiganmike


A beautiful drawing that captures the serenity of the sleeping child very well. I like the bow on her head and the very nice looking skin tones.
