Your drawing imparts that WoW feeling very well drawing an interest to know what this is all about. Gorgeous details of the face and especially the eyes. I like the realistic shadow from his hat brim! Awesome and well done!

Comment from Susan F. M. T.


Mark,
A colourful picture of a masked Gentleman with blue eyes the left one a little closer to his nose than the right, that is looking straight ahead... His mask hiding his mouth but not protecting others from what comes out of his nose...the Covid Police will have to pull him aside!!
Created with your artist's eye for composition, very skillful draftsmanship beautiful choice blending & application of your colours in bringing this Gentleman to life.
Susan

excellent composition and superb use of your chosen medium.I particularly like the compact structure that you have done and this inevitably emphasises the eyes and subsequently the characteristic nature of this image,well done and good luck

Youare so right with your message as thatis what we all need to work on worldwide so we can stay free beings with free will
Excellent composition and your face expression of this guy is excellent as it shows the horrific false situation we go through -
fantastic idea- super representation to teach truth - super detail work, stunning color composition really stand out and your texts are awakening - the yellow parts in the face are the horrific feelings in this situation - fantastic presentation, thanks for sharing to make people aware...

Interesting and intriguing at the same time.
The expression is so intense that I am not sure if I like it, yet it does convey message that you like to send,
Great everything and innovative presentation.

I know that the shadow knows! I had that Orson Wells story until a hurricane took it. Your portrait of the character looks perfect to me. The sharp blue eyes indeed "Have it". The nose looks as if he is sniffing for evil-doer's. Your drawing is excellent composed and rendered. The colors are perfect. The shading emphasizes the eyes and the face expression remarkably. The drawing is expertly composed and framed. The composition is balanced.

The Shadow Knows.
Those are some really piercing blue eyes that go very well with the subject. A penetrating gaze if ever there was one. Best of luck in the contest.
