Another fantastic work. The expressions are subtle but powerful. I love her hair! Lots of great textures here as well as nice shows of highlights

Heeey, Jenna! How're you? It seems to have been aages!

And thank you, as ever! I always dread doing hair XD it just invariably looks like a big old scribbly mess to me, so yeah, thanks for that!

By the way, I only found your message you sent through hotmail at Christmas just recently! I need to respond to it asap -- tells you how often I check my emails, doesn't it?

Sorry. I haven't been to DA in forever since I haven't really drawn anything in forever and coming here serves to depress me when I think about my lack of artistic pull :/

It's not though, you always take extreme care in your work, and it really does show

No worries, it takes me ages these days to respond to anything it seems... I'm a bad friend! oO

Aw, Jenna! Well you're a brilliant artist and I'm sure the lack of creative pull's more to do with your head being full of every day stuff and nothing more! It's tough to be creative when you've got so much on your plate!

Thank you

You're not a bad friend at all!! If you are, I am! But as I say it's just hard to find time for recreational stuff! It's not a lack of concern or interest at all.

You're always so kind to me I am looking forward to the day that I'm free from college and have my degree. It's about a year away, and I can't wait! The kids will also be older, so it's going to be a lot easier to do stuff artistically without them trying to climb in my lap, take my supplies, or not giving me a moment to get in my own head space

Likewise - and hey, it's well deserved!

I hope it comes soon for you. It's difficult, isn't it? I mean they must grow up so fast and you'll soon be looking back wondering where the time's gone, but on the other hand, you still need to invest in some you time amidst it al. I honestly could never be a mother - to be one means being wholly committed to another life and being so selfless with your time and I'm so hopeless at that.

I didn't think I would make a good mom (still think there's room for improvement as with all things I suppose) but I do my best. I hope when they are older to be creative with them
