Pat,

Grate balance between lost and found, detail and distance, shadow and light. Awesome!

Thank you, Mischa. This is a high complement! I still see edges that need to recede a bit and will probably fiddle a little more tonight.

Patricia,
This is a really beautiful drawing. I agree with what Mischa has said. It is such a delicate drawing, yet done with such confidence and mastery. Beautiful expressions on the girls. Whoever is getting this work of art will be blown away.

David

Thank you, David. I don't know about confidence and mastery because I really struggled with this. But I'm happy it gives off that impression. The woman who has commissioned this piece is also representing my work in her small gallery in Ct. So, of course, I wanted a strong piece for her to show clients. She is having a show in May and this and two other drawings of mine will be exhibited.

Pat, I look forward to seeing your drawings every time I notice you have a new post. There is such delicacy in the way you handle graphite, and you capture the expressions so well. Congratulations on the connection to the gallery in CT. I hope she gets some commissions for you. (Can't imagine why she wouldn't.)

Beautiful Pat! but this is a tease -- I'd love to see some bigger images of it!

You really captured a beautiful expression. I liked the teeth very much.
