Description I've recently done a competition on my blog [link] for people to be the model of my drawings under the theme "Winter". Valerie was the winner of that competition so I've drawn her. I really enjoyed working on this drawing and I love the final result. Don't like that much the scan of it but that's another story, I'm quite proud of the real drawing. I hope you'll guy it as much as I do

I'm entering this drawing for *Egil21 's Portraits contest [link] and *Jenna-Rose 's Winter Wonders contest [link]

I HAVE A NEW COMPETITION ON MY BLOG. IF YOU'D LIKE TO BE A MODEL FOR MY DRAWINGS, CHECK IT HERE: [link]

This is a magnificent drawing I love it truly, you captured the emotion soo well, her hair looks beautiful and you drew the hat nicely with all that detail >.< I would never have the patience to draw a hat like that haha. Truly spectacular.

Thank you so much! Sometimes I think I won't be patient enough to draw details but I just love details so I end up figuring a way to not rush

You know, since that day I added you to my watchlist I have never regretted it.
This is just... wow... you really has something special, it shows so clearly in all of your drawings. It's so alive and beautiful <3
I don't get it how you can cope with that many details but I guess it's just your passion ^^
You really take time with your drawings which I admire...
Right now I have a portrait to finish but sometimes I give up so easy with it... but just looking at your works like this gives me hope... and that I can have a go again on it, I really appreciate that. I also want to be able to make these beautiful details.

Totally forgot to comment on the drawing here. Let me just state that I LOVE it! I think you captured that atmosphere you were going for perfectly. I am not a big fan of the winter personally, the absence of life in nature and the cold weather is not exactly something I adore. But this drawing made me think about the positive sides of the winter, it's peaceful as well and I think you captured that essence really well! I showed it to my friends as well and they totally agree

Damn, you're becoming a master of drawing details ! I guess this is what I love most here. But also, I must mention the shading, which is wonderfully done. I love how the hat is a bit smudgy on the right because it makes this portrait look more like a picture ! Her eyes look shiny and you've captured her pretty smile so well The dark areas in the background make the whole drawing look even more amazing. Now I can see how important it is to draw a background
Keep it up, sweetie, it's a great piece of artwork
