Stunning image, I always am in awe of your use of light and shadow. This young fellow is absolutely adorable as presented and the emotional value of this piece is priceless. He has all the innocent qualites that make us go AWE... then your technique multiplies that many times over. Thanks for sharing another wonderful and moving image. Good Luck!

Comment from ChuckWaxman
Wonderful piece of art. I think you did justice to the original scene. Your technique is great, and your attention to detail is wonderful - I feel like I am kneeling with him in prayer. Love the light and dark contrasts in the piece. Thanks for sharing and good luck in the contest.

I had to vote for this and tell you that I am so moved by this beautiful, exquisite drawing. It is by far superior to my own work and all the others. I'm glad I got home in time to vote. Absolutely precious!

At first glance I thought this was a picture. It is so superbly done my congratulations. Only on very close examination can you see that it is a piece of pencil art. Magnificent. I wish you every success in this contest! Great work!

Comment from claire.glidden
I absolutely love this picture. The tiny details in the that make it so realistic are fantastic. The hair looks so real. The shadows , lght and dark just in the right places make this image soft and give the appearance of an old photograph. Very well done*

Comment from Alveria
This is such a precious drawing of the adorable child kneeling down in prayer. I love how the head is resting on the knee, and the lovely curly hair. Good interaction of light and shadow. Definitely tells a story. Great framing and visual impact. Very well done. ~Alveria

Dearest Alveria, I must tell the truth. I saw this photo on Pinterest. I was so compelled by the beauty of the photo that I had to draw it. I have since got in touch with the photographer to tell him of what I had done. To copy a photo is something that I am not sure is right. In the interim. I want to thank you for your very wonderful review.

Comment from Sange
Lady Linda, this is SUPERBULOUS! I saw this wee boy on Pinterest, they had many photos of children and animals bowed in prayer. You did excellent work here from his curly hair down to every crease and wrinkle on his shirt and shorts.
This is evokes such a humble attitude and the innocence of children.
Outstanding work once again from this Gifted hands.
Well Done!

OH Sange, lately I have felt the tinge of guilt. This is a photo, one of which I hadn't taken. But the image was so wonderful that I wanted to attempt to draw it. Now I don't know if I should have done that. I have since written to the photographer telling him of my desire to share his work. He has responded. I just don't want to be a cheater. I did draw this all on my own, but I used his photo as a reference. I thank you for your review and your understanding.
