                        Wonderful work, Hud! The expressions are very moving, and the values are quite good! I also love the textures, her hair and the stone behind them – outstanding! You’ve got a natural touch with the charcoal.

                            Jenna: Thank you very much … I appreciate your comments – I do not know how ‘natural’ I am with charcoal … but I am working at it … I do enjoy the medium –

                            This shows a lot of emotion, Hud, a very good capture of their faces.

                                                She looks scared and defiant all at once. Great skill!
