welcome to aw marie. i'd love to know what joe black meant by "very ok" but there is nothing "ok" about your work. you have a brilliant eye and attention to detail. i thought this was a photo when i 1st saw the thumbprint. is this oil or chalk pastel and what's the size of the original? looking forward to seeing more of your fine work.
Artist Reply: Hi Sheila - this was actually drawn using Daler Rowney Sepia & white sketching pencils. Only 2 colours were used. I do have prints of this portrait available.
