Jimmie,
I have a sneaking suspicion I am not the only one saving my "mad" money and fantasizing about having my portrait done my Jimmie Arroyo, Artist of Women!!!!!

I agree with all of the comments already posted and this is now my new favorite.

Wow, thanks everyone.

I'm so glad that this is getting such a good response. One of my goals is to find beauty in everyone, so I guess it's working.

(In a daydream state) "mmmm, love handles"

Let me do say that I have to make some changes to this. Altho she has a lazy eye, I made her left eye a wee bit too small so I'll fix that soon. If anyone was wondering about the placement of the catchlights, there is sunlight thru a large window about twenty feet away on her left side, and flourescent lights directly above her right side.

Thank you all again. Very appreciated.

Jimmie,

Nice work, if you can get it...ole blue eyes said it right - and YOU HAVE GOT IT!! This one is jumping off the page, well, gently. You know how someone said, "I feel as if I know her"? Well, that truly is a compliment because she looks like the girl next door with a personality that is all her own.

Your drawings are extraordinary and please keep drawing and painting!!

Nice to see this,

Denise
