One of my favourite oil painting artits! I like the first sketch very much because the expression in her face looks very interesting with just a few lines. Very nice drawing!

Thank you! It was tough trying to keep that look in her face when adding color without ruining it.

I think it's very difficult to draw with pencils but you use them in a wonderful way!

Thank you. I'm pretty sure this is the longest drawing I ever did. Took 4 days, several hours per day, plus one extra day just to smooth it out and fix tiny details.

Thanks! It's a little different from how I usually draw (everything lightly at first, then gradually darkening.) Since this one had so many different elements I decided to do it one section at a time.
