I don't comment or review too often on the drawing artists since I don't draw and feel like it is not my place to review, but when I saw this, I had to tell you "amazing". I was captured by her eyes and I understand they are one of the hardest things to draw. Very good work.

I am astonished to see that lighting effects you have achieved. Remarkable shadows and light. The face is stunning. A remarkable rendition of the Icon.Hollywood is sure to grab this! Bravo!

Comment from snowblaze
Your drawings are just remarkable. This one implements light and shadow in a most classic way -- with a significant amount of "Linda Bickston" thrown in for good measure and the viewer's good fortune. I love the soft sparkle in her eyes and the "careless" wisp of hair on her forehead. This is just lovely.

One of the most beautiful pictures I've ever seen of Marilyn Monroe showing her real beauty & innocence. Created with a skilful eye for composition, very skilful draftsmanship & beautiful framing. Thanks for sharing this with us.

Comment from momentsofjoy7351
Fantastic and fun. I have never seen this particular image, was it a photo? This hat is well... it it SOME KIND OF HAT. lol - wow. You did absolutely capture a sense of innocence and an aloof shy quality as well. I really have no idea how you do what you do but those hands of yours are fantastic and your visions are beautiful. Technique: There is beautiful line, light and shadow. Fantastic textures and blending. I really enjoy your work. Thanks for sharing.

Wow, Lori. I have finally made it. Your grandkids are amazing. Marilyn Monroe is a wonderful subject to work on. Thank you for your fantastic review.

Comment from MKFlood
The image begins to speak saying. ." I owe everything to the pencil wizard Linda for bringing me to life. I never knew how beautiful I was till she perfectly shaded and detailed my face so perfectly. Then she gave this gorgeous hat done not only in perfect form and detail, but she also gave it perfect depth making me 3 dimensional . Thank you so much Linda for bringing me to life and parade my beauty to the world. ".....
I had to walk away..the girl just wouldn't shut up..evil grin.
Outstanding work linda (standing clapping and cheering) woo ooooooo
