I guess I can call this a "Commission", as long as the definition has nothing to do with monetary compensation. This is the daughter of a woman at my office. She wasn't the least bit interested in letting me take my own photo. The best I could do is get a picture of Allison that didn't have a big smile.

Not finished yet, but comments and critiques would help.

The cross hatching in the face seems to be exaggerated in the scan. It looks smoother in person.

I'm working on those darker darks that were suggested in my last critique. This was done in 6B pencil in a sketch book.
