Sesha, this is a great portrait of the woman reading the book, but I think that her legs are out of proportion to her upper body. They seem too big and heavy in girth. However, if that is how she is built, then it's perfect. Your technique in creating muscle tone with shadowing and light is excellent and your ability to convey dimension is great.

I didn't mean to draw this in a realistic way. Followed a modern trend in drawing and painting in an expressionist way. Hence, there is an element of out-of-proportion. Thank you for taking the time to review and write this fine review. Your support is very much appreciated.

Comment from Devonte Baker
This is an amazing piece you did here. I really like you colored in pencil using different shades of pencil. You did a marvelous job, she is really enjoying her book laying against her books. Thank you for sharing!

A wonderful visual presented here of this woman quietly reading and enjoying the book that she's chosen. You're shading is impeccable. Your body form is perfect! well done. Here's my six for you.

I wanted her featureless face to evoke introspection and peace.
