Description she's my 9th diva who's down to earth with very seductive look and the hypnotizing beauty...someone said "Personality. Diva is someone that you cannot explaine. You only understand that she is someone different from all others." and I agree.. i have collected a lot of ref photos of her but they were too plain,, nothing attracted my attention until i saw this one... of course this one has lots of lots of more details which means a lot of hours..but i really enjoyed drawing her..the crazy details gave my wrist a lot of pain so i had to put some Icy hot cream on it ;;lol... so i got ONLY 3 more to go... thank god! lol and i want to draw the guys too..tired of pretty faces... thank you ! 15X19 on vellum bristol for CLOSE UP hongmin.deviantart.com/art/det…

Oh Man yes in her 30s especially!

Look at my "Faithless" drawing- Its one of my Tallulahs. I've added more to it since (the background is darker, the part of her face that is pressed into the pillow is also darker etc. Would love your comment!

She looks so happy in this drawing and I'm so impressed by the fine details you incorporated into her eyes (she has such lovely eyes at that). Although a talented artist tends to feel dissatisfied with his/her work, I really love this one.

It looks incredible! She is so amazing and so is your drawing of her.
I don't think it's just coincidence that you started with Greta Garbo first. (:
But wow.
Great work!

And the way you blend with a brush that I read in one of your responses sounds really interesting. I think I'd like to try that sometime. It seems to have a super result.
