Hi everyone, this is my first drawing in a while. It's graphite (2H,F,B) and white charcoal pencil, on Canson paper. The color of the paper is 'Sky Blue', the size is 8x11". I'm planning to submit it in Salmagundi's "thumb box" exhibition, the artwork cannot exceed 9x12".

I was in the middle of a pastel piece, but cannot get the model to sit for me for over a week. I may do another one of these small pieces as you can submit up to three pieces. I'd like to do a small pastel piece before November's end.

Thanks for looking.

Sorry. We're still a little jumpy down here in Louisiana.

Very nice drawing. Another blue ribbon coming your way, I'm sure!

This is beautiful, Jimmie. She's another strong, individual woman, nothing "generic" about her, well done!

Jimmy,

I wonder what she is thinking? That is my immediate response to this lovely piece. You may have a difficult time displaying all the awards you are and will be collecting.

I love how you've vignetted this, Jimmie. Just beautiful--mood and mystery.

That's a really strong drawing, Jimmie. Beautiful work!

Once again, a brilliant Drawing Jimmie. You are an artist I look up to. Everytime I looked at your work, I said to myself " oh man, I still have a LONG way to go!"
