    Thank you for this beautiful review. I appreciate so much your feedback.
Comment from RyanIsHereNow


This is a beautiful, well thought out piece. The contrast is phenomenal. However the fence in the background could use a little more color to add more emphasis. But overall, awesome piece.

    Thank you Ryan. I guess maybe the fence could’ve used some color, but it was a white fence so I just kind of went with that.

Well this is nice. Love the black and white. Your observations from photos are excellent, very good details. With the boy prominent with the clothes he wears. This is a very good drawing

This is incredibly skilled artwork. At first glance I thought it was a photograph, such is the quality and detail. Just look at those fabrics - my mind is blown. If I could award 10 stars I would!

Comment from suffolkbrian


You sort of captured a pensive look in this [not normanally a teenager image as such] lol,but it does have a certain charm more so because of the lack of color,not sure why you cropped his feet,but minor thing overall a good one...Brian

    Thank you Ryan for all of your wonderful suggestions. I’m not sure why I cropped his feet either.

This is a wonderful rendering of your friends son. Very detailed and precise. You mention "through visual process", I am curious what is that? Thank you for sharing this and the best of luck in the black and white contest. Ray

    Visual, for me, is drawing what I see. I’m not formally trained, so basically I do what works for me. Hit and miss so to speak. Thank you for your wonderful review

Looks almost like a photograph. Hard to tell these days lol. The shading and tones are really nice. Perspective great also. Nice work, thanks for sharing.

Hi Linda, this drawing in black and white is amazing and has a lot of fine detail. I can imagine it took you a while to draw this. I love how you created the jeans and jacket. Thanks for sharing :-)
