Very nice! Love the eyes! |

Great job, Susan. Proof that "plugging away" has its rewards. |

Re: My oldest daughter....
Hi Susan, I haven't had much time to check out the work on w/c let alone comment of late - but this piece compels me to tell you how impressed I am! Your progress has been phenomenal. You've nailed your daughter's likeness, achieved convincing dimentionality and rendered gorgeous skin tones. Well done! |
