Beautifully done, margaret.
it makes me think to the solidity of an Holbein's drawing.

Margaret,
This looks very nice. You accomplished so much in such a little time and this gives me hope as I struggle through my open studio sessions.

Margaret, portraiture can be such fun. The fun for me is when I recognize and capture the special characteristics of a person. In this portrait you have done just that. Well done!

Thanks for your comments
Many thanks for your encouraging comments.
I usually find that rapid portraits are my most spontaneous and probably successful
Looking to stop overworking and loosen up!
