Neha...this is very nice and I am sure your father will be delighted. The eyes, the lips, and the overall proportions of the face have come out very well. I cannot comment on the likeness, but judging from how nicely you have drawn some of the fea...

I am 60 years old and for the last 4 or 5 years I have tried to do at least one drawing every day because I find it very relaxing. Of course, some of these are only 5-minute sketches.
I would love to paint, particularly using watercolours, but I am an absolute novice at that.

Balaji, I just looked through your drawings. They are so well executed. When I see such good renderings it makes me want to pick up my pencils again. You will make a wonderful painter because you draw so well. Rita

After seeing your "Old Harbour Hotel' and saying "WOW' I checked out your other artworks and want to say "WOW" to all of them. You have an incredible talent with the pen and ink. I would love to see them enlarged a lot so I can see more details. I will try my hand on the computer and see what I can come up with. Look forward to seeing more fabulous works. Regards, Renate

Thanks Balaji. I do appreciate the crique as I think no one liked the bow....I will have to repaint as its watercolours and the red will be hard to get rid of. Never mind. Maybe if I do another I will delete this one . I took a photo of my little christmas tree in the doorway with the sunlight, but the window is purely fictional LOL Thanks again

I like the atmosphere here. Since pastels aren't my specialty, I won't comment on improvements. I think what everyone else has said makes sense. The one thing I do know is that pastels seem easy to lighten and darken so revisions should work. BTW....
