Thanks so much!

Sorry, Jeff, to think my next model is named Rita. Kidding!

Although I don't like portraying smiles, when Katrina smiled, she looked like a model for da Vinci. She has a classical look about her. I've been trying to get in touch with her to pose for color, but no luck.

Soooooooooooooo, Claudemir, are you saying that you are "Lovely, beautiful, strong, etc..."?

Thanks again.

Strong and full of character, while at the same time delicate and beautiful.

Jimmie,
You never cease to amaze me. Has anyone ever asked for one of these beauties to be put on them as a tatoo? Nothing would surprise me.

I agree with all the compliments, Jimmie. You have an incredible drawing talent. I would love to see a close up of the face if you ever have time.

So you work mainly on toned paper?

Beautiful piece. I do see the Da Vinci smile there as well.

well Jimmie,

there is something winding about this drawing. It is mysterious like a da Vinci who took his name from the basket makers village.
The expression in Mona Lisa is more in the way that the light forms the shadows to make us believe that she smiles more than she actually do.

Keep it up

Allan
