Nice work, Gabrielle! Welcome.

A few family members have visited Dominica and says it's beautiful.
Lucky you: while we in most of the U.S. are having a cold spell, I imagine Dominica is like Barbados where my family came from - around 70 degrees most of the year?

Welcome, Gabriel.
Very fine drawing. I like it very much. Very sensitive use of the charcoal and the white chalk. Do you have more drawings to show?
