Julie,
I didn't go back. This was sent to me at the same time as the first one. I posted it at your request.
I wasn't going to post it, as my skills are not up to SOG standards, but since you asked...
I'm hoping that regular life work will help sharpen my skills.

Dear Jeff,
Your drawing is lovely . Do not feel for one moment it doesn't meet the "standard". I feel so excited to hear of your project, please post more.

It is quite a wonderful drawing.
If anyone wants to feel better, I should post MY drawing of kids at a barbeque fundraiser.
It is a great and original way to keep the eyes and hand sharp and develop a personal style.

Hi Jeff, I spotted this thread today - are you still doing this project? What a wonderful project, I hope you are still doing it.
I just wanted to say that I think a full-faced pose with a single light source is easier to manage if you are doing multiple drawings of various people, especially if they aren't professional models and are very sqwiggly. In a 2/3rds face pose you have to keep that far orbital bone exactly lined up and the iris/sclera shape exactly right or else the eyes get out of alignment really fast.
(Just my opinion here, others may differ on this.)
