Lovely rendering




Mike, this is a wonderful way to depict an elderly woman. Soft, but she has a lot of "presence". My only thought on this is the line quality all along the left side of the face and nose. I believe this could be made stronger by varying it more, and losing the line in places. My art prof would often comment on the "beautiful disappearing line". I'll try to find an example to refer you to. (My study of artist's and their techniques is really rusty). Maybe someone else can pull one up quickly.

Jean
