Impressive... I personally love this dedications and I regret not having ref photos from special people on my life that are no longer around. Doing portraits (fortunetely) is more than just depicting sheer beauty and sex-appeal and I look up to you in that regard...

Peace.

Eh ! What's going on? I hadn't receive anything from you for ages...and Today, there are 40 new drawings !!! Anyway, I will watch them one by one. This first one is really well done. The expression of Owen D. is really good.

Ooh one other thing. The way that the background is blurred is very good, makes it look even more like a photo!

Yeah, the photography this time around was difficult, a combination of very bad sunlight and impatience on my part! :-)

Thanks for your comment!! :-)
