Thanks so much for all your very interesting and nice comments. I post this comment on this drawing because it's my favourite.. professional. Sorry for my english
Thank you, I work hard on likeness, sometimes they work and sometimes they don't, but you don't see them. I like to pick out an area which is important on a portrait, here! it was to get her eyes firstly right and in the centre. I'm not being big headed when I say the rest was just hair and light and shade. I'm not the best, but I am 62 and have drawn and painted since I was 6 I hope that they are reasonable by now.
Thank you, I think you asked 'which talent' I hope I have as my best talent. Sight, the ability to see a pose.
Merci, je pense que vous avez demandé ' ; quel talent' ; J'espère que j'ai en tant que mon meilleur talent. Vue, la capacité de voir une pose.
Thank you, the secret of painting or drawing is originality, technique and likeness. Easy to say after 50 years of practice. My favourite painter is Frenchman Edgar Degas, he said 'art is not what you see, but what you make others see'!
