Blue Eyed Sweety
I finished her yesterday. My sister and brother-in law know her from church (her parents won the commission at our church auction!) and they said I captured her quiet sweetness which is exactly what I was after.
Thank you for your input and thanks for looking!
Patty
I should mention the little "moon" you see on her neck is a strawberry birthmark she was nervous about showing and which mom was questioning. I think it looks like a moon and is very sweet.

Patricia,
You have really captured something special here. This is a beautiful, beautiful drawing!! I absolutely love it. What a sweet , lovely girl. And I like that you included the birthmark - after all, it's part of who she is. But you've included it with the perfect touch, or lack of emphasis.
Just beautiful.
David

Pat, I guess I've said it already in the Critiques section but I love this drawing. I think it's your best yet and I know there will be more to come. There's a silvery, alive quality in it. Beautiful!

Patty, This is so very beautiful. I know her family must be thrilled. It is everything that this type of portrait should be. Is it charcoal or graphite? How big?
Lovely!
Louise
