Description This is a commission for a very nice fellow in Canada I'm not sure who the subject is, but I really really enjoyed working on this - shes beautiful, no?

This is the first time I've ever enjoyed drawing hair on a pencil drawing, and I'm really happy with how it came out, as is the commissioner. As such, no critiques please

I dont really have much else to say.. As ever, it looks much nicer IRL, but I did my best with my camera

Enjoy!

Thankyou Ally! I would do more if people commissioned me more! However I do have one of Sienna Miller that has lain untouched and half finished for abooooout 2 months (whoops lol), and I have an unposted commissioned one to put up hopefully this weekend, and I am hopefully going to be drawing someone one as a gift for this Christmas..... will that be enough to satisfy you?

Haha xD I think so! One or two more It just looks very professional and it just seems like you should express that talent so much more But then again, I should speak for myself because I don't do much real life persons and I know I can too xD;;; Heh

Thankyou very much! Well someone at a crafts store has expressed an interest in my art and recommending it to their customers, which I am delighted with! I have ordered some business cards and hope to drop some off when they arrive. I hope this will bring in a lot more interest and mean that I end up doing more of these in the near future And yes you should do more~! I really like your painting works

Good work! Business cards are a god idea. You gotta advertise in the outside world, because deviant art just -ain't- where it's at!

This is real nice! You didn't overdo the hair and the skin looks great. But I think you might want to put a little more shading on whites of the eyes. I could be mistaken and am giving bad advice though... you shouldn't trust me lol.

Thankyou very much The whites of the eyes were this pale on the reference photo so I left them as they were. But yes, generally more shading on the eyeballs would be anatomically correct, you are right
