Thought I'd take this opportunity while Hazel is away on holiday of uploading a picture of her I did last week (just to avoid the wrath you see). It was after a very long day walking the NEC in Birmingham (those of you who don't know it, its a huge exhibition centre otherwise known as Hell on Earth) visiting friends and drumming up business at a trade show. So hopefully she'll excuse the non likeness as we were both shattered and this was coming up to 11pm on the train, and I was sitting too close to her, and I had had two glasses of wine..... I can use all the excuses in the world, but after knowing her for 16 years (OMG is it really that long!!!) you would think that I really should by now be able to get some sort of likeness...
Likeness or no, it's a beautiful, sensitive drawing...
ReplyDeleteWell, don't know if this looks like her, but I like the drawing very much! nancy
ReplyDeleteEven if it doesn't look like her, it's a great sketch!
ReplyDeleteA great sketch - likeness or no. I like the texture in the cap, the hair, and the meditative gaze.
ReplyDeleteI don't know about the likeness (it's always more difficult to draw people close to us !) but this portrait looks really nice !
ReplyDeleteWell, it looks like a terrific character for a children's book or something! Love the textures!
ReplyDeleteOh I like it very much - it has 'character' i think!
ReplyDeleteShe looks great, anyway! Love the expression, makes her real! Very cool drawing!
ReplyDeleteThe design and execution of that design is just outstanding.
ReplyDeleteThanks guys! Lets see what Hazel thinks now...
ReplyDeletethis one is full of sentimentalism, i like a lot *.*
