Thank you so much! She's a beautiful dancer and Richard is such an incredible photographer in how he captures that muscle tone. And I do love drawing ballet shoes, there's something so elegant about them. Hair is a different matter.π I was worried when I drew it because it's so important to this image and I find hair pretty difficult but I'm pleased with how it turned out.π

Thanks Joanna! I love that you notice them. Sometimes I think about the title the whole time I'm working on a drawing, and sometimes it pops into my head before I've even started. I do enjoy it.

I think I know what you mean, I also love thinking about such titles, it seems have no inspiration lately But I have something in mind for a future drawing!
IF I finish it in time, there's a deadline. Yours are always so inspired, truly admire your skills! (ALL your skills!
)

Thank you so much! Good luck with the drawing. I find it certainly helps when you're developing techniques if you start with a really good reference photo.
