Thank you, the drawings on your website are amazing.

When it comes to drawing I have alot of experience in, still life, cast dwg, life dwg, head dwg, and anatomy. I'm at a point where I would not hesitate to offer someone a portrait in pencil or charcoal, and in fact am putting together a website to do just that, based on advise I read in an article by Chris Saper where she suggested to start by offering what your comfortable with and good at.

Where I'm having trouble, and you picked up on it immediately, is translating the black and white values to color, I don't really know how to adjust the values of a color without changing the color to something that looks like mud. I suppose this will come with time and practice, practice, practice.

Thank you again for your valuable time and advice.
