I'm speechless! Please correct me if I am wrong but that looks like Buddha looking upon the female?

You really know how to make me blush, thank you, I'm delighted you like it! It's actually a close-up of Michealangelo's "Madonna of the Bruges" sculpture.

Oh, it's quite embarrassing. Outlines of ideas for tattoos and stories. Nothing like this. I think I'll stick to my strengths; this is obviously yours.

It's not embarrassing at all, tattoo designs and illustrations are fantastic, though you certainly do have your strengths in your writing and capturing emotion through a camera! Thank you so much Grace, for your incredible kindness!

WOW! Thank you so much dear! It's silver leaf, and I'm racking my brain to remember if I still own the original. This is my least favorite of my drawings to be honest, and I'm amazed and thrilled at the positive feedback it's gotten. Thank you again K!

Thank you so much dear, that really means a lot! This was for a drawing class, the portrait in the background is Michealangelo's "Madonna of the "Bruges", and the foreground figure was a friend of mine. Was really an experiment. Miss You!
