Description
Hi everyone. I'm back with a new drawing. I've been working on this one for a while. This is a portrait of the beautiful Kelly Monaco. I did the drawing for a new step by step tutorial on my website. I did something a little different for me on this one. I tried to fade out the bottom of the portrait. I'm not sure if I was successful at this but I tried. Hope you guys like it and check out the tutorial at [link]11"x14" Fabriano Hotpress

Thank you. Yeah, a lot of people don't know her. But I think she's one of the better looking actresses out there.
