Amanda - 7/15. New Canson Mi-Teintes paper on this piece. It is nice paper! Amanda was up on a platform and I was slightly below her. When I translated the length of the neck to the paper, it looked really long, and it does now too. I checked it and rechecked it. She had a long neck and the angle I think made it look even moreso.

I am pleased with this drawing none the less. The likeness is coming faster and faster for me these days.
