I am always impressed with how you can make the fabrics look so realistic. Your shading and highlighting are so good. I like the pose of your subject and how well your work is on her hands. The background is also appealing.

A very nice drawing. She somehow reminds me of Claudia Schiffer. I like the colors and especially the very nice texture in the white dress.

Very nice pastel work. I like the realistic body proportions and color of the background. The skin tone is excellent. Overall, nice job with the composition and well framed. Thanks for sharing

Beautiful artwork and subject. I love the way you captured the dress with its draping Fabricio. The surroundings are also beautiful. It has a very expressive store and exudes warmth.

This has so much it is a true work of art in the sense of scene, in the number of details, in its perfect construction. Beautiful colour pallet, the dress and its shadows, the lady .. A big wow for this fine piece of work.
As an aside, i like to work with pastels on black but haven't done much last few years partly because if chalky mess ..lol i don't have control like you seem to have for finer detail. I use mainly my fingers and sometimes cotton buds. Have you any tips please, would really appreciate ...

She actually looks a lot like an 'Alexandria' that my niece Zelda was friends with a long time ago! : )
It's a very attractive picture,my friend!
