Linda, you are truly gifted! Your work is beautiful in every way. The emotions and details you create with a pencil are impressive and leaves us all waiting for more.
I assume this is your lovely daughter. She is stunning and you did capture that dreamy look you were after.
The realism is a treat for our eyes. You captured a part of her soul here that we photographers strive for in our work.
God has blessed you with an amazing talent that you use well. The hours that went into this shine through.
You work is a JOY to view.
Well done Lady Linda...
Well done!👏👏👏👏😉

This is lovely. The peace on her face is evident!!

I love the soft patterns on the bed linens and the background --- they perfectly frame the young woman.

Remarkable pencil work... the hair is especially stunning.

Comment from bcgrafiks


Another outstanding piece. Outstanding rendering skills. Wonderful use of light, the way the subjects face is illuminated almost as if the light source were from within. Rembrandt used this very successfully in many of his portraits. The pose and peaceful countenance are very successfully conveyed. A very peaceful and warm work. A very, very well done work. Thanks

Comment from Bretislav


Beautiful. True master of the craft. The dimm light over her is perfect. The detail is just amazing and it, I know very well, is a painstaking job. The smirk on her face shows that whatever she is dreaming, makes her happy. You'd almost hate her wake up. Just sit there in a dark and watch her enjoying the other life.

    You nailed it. My teachers used to call me dreamer. I was always somewhere in my fantasy world. I'm happy to have met you, for this site, although it has it's pluses, it has half a million photographers and only a fist full of true artists. Now I know there is one more...

Very expressive painting. I love the soft texture of the skin, like the delicate tones and great shading, like excellent techniques and very nice lighting and frame. Good job.

Comment from Life is but a dream.


Linda, I see you are fairly new to FAR so welcome. I'm happy to have found this award winning drawing and it is no surprise it won.

I tell photographers that their photographs look like art and artist's that their art looks like photographs.

The detail here is skillfully done, you have talent way above the cut of most. The pose is also beautifully rendered shows beauty of the female form through and through. The shadow light play is perfect the tonal quality is vast the light source is seen.

This has to be one of the better images I have seen on this site and I congratulate you on your talent. Please continue to nurture this gift you have been given.

Well worth 6 stars.
