Julie (and all Forum members),
There is only one section to unveil portraits, and this is it, whatever the medium. So please never hesitate to unveil a drawing here if you feel it s complete and ready to be viewed. Thanks, Julie, for bringing up this point.

Julie, I think this is one of my favorite drawings I've seen of yours. Very nice indeed. Really has a soft old world (Renaissance) quality to it somehow.

Hi Heidi,
You're exactly right! I was trying to integrate line quality with shadows similar to old master drawings I've seen. Plus play with textures in the background.

Julie,
What a marvelous portrait.
The simplicity of it allows the pure, honest drawing capture all of its deserved attention.
All of the elements fit hand in glove to make a dynamic image.
I'm so glad I saw it.
