I agree! the composition is great. The flow and placement of all the circles and where the girl so is, is wonderful. I really like the colors you chose too.

how do you start with graphite drawing? Do you use grids to align parts of the drawing?

Hey, I watched the video and it was really interesting. Wonderful job! I love watching the process of different artists, that is the best part (to me). Just wondering about the gray canvas that you use, if it is actually canvas or what? I usually just gesso the entire thing and go. I never considered drawing before I painted either, I'll try it sometime. Thanks for the inspiration!

I realize this is older (I only just found it today), and I'm sure you've moved on...but, the composition of this one is real nice.

I like the way you combined the rough white background with the very accurate drawing of the person. Great effect.

Beautifully done, and I'm liking that this is traditional medium. The shape and line work the colours, the feel, everything connects beautifully.

This is my favorite of all your paintings. I am so impressed at how many different emotions you can get with the same type of colors in multiple paintings.
