Brilliant work!!! I thought I was looking at the reference photograph :-)
Its coming along beautifully. I look forward to seeing the finished drawing.
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...

- 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

Renate said… - 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

Mary said… - 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 really admire the contrast of the sky to the mustard fields and their vibrancy....excellent job
Thank you Marsha,
Very kind from you. It was more work than what I thougth at the beginning. and the foreground was a real challenge but i think I hae manage somehow.
Thank you 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....
You might try checking a site called www.about.com they have info on most anything you can think of
I hope that I havend writen to somebody else your message......
