Another sketch... I did this one about a month ago, perhaps too quickly.
I don't often draw them looking at me dead on like this, but I do like her expression.

Ahhhh, Christy! I love the beauty of the strokes, the variation of lines and shading, the sensitivity of that line describing the neck and collar. The features are exquisite.

Thank you Alexandra! :)

I'm happy you like the little sketch; you've made my day.

Thanks Sharon, it means much to hear that from you, as I've noticed you're very discriminating! ;)

This one is sensitive and fresh, really nice work, Christie! Can you tell us what medium and paper you used here? So much of drawing depends on finding the right tools for your method - you have hit it exactly right on this piece.

Flawless, timeless, and inspirational, the kind of work that makes others say, "There -- that's how I'd like to be able to draw."

Sometimes working quickly means freshness and spontaneity : and that's exactly what you obtained here.
Lovely work!
