Hi. My attempt at drawing this beautiful lady. Graphite on A3 paper. Thanks for having a look. Cheers Glen.

Nicely done, Glen- she is recognisable even without the title.

Re: Grace

Hi: Thank you for your comments. In response to Andy's comment about the eyebrows I am not sure how accurate the drawing is here. The deep shadows on the photo reference did not show a lot of detail especially around the eye on the right. One of the problems of drawing from a photo. Cheers Glen.
