Artist's Comments

Graphite on paper. This is a drawing of how I remember my Grandmother before she passed away. It's an older picture of mine and it was all done with just a #2 pencil and an eraser. (since I'm self-taught I was a little slow on the uptake about all the different materials that are available..:dohtwo:) At the same time though, I LIKE that it was done with something so simple as a single pencil. I think it shows that you can get a nice result with minimal resources.

Wow. That is so impressive. You are talented in the extreme... beautiful work.

Thank you :)) This has been a fun ego boost posting these things here as I've never taken an art class so I haven't had any feedback before now.

I can't believe you drew this from memory! Really fantastic. :D

I've heard it said that people come into our lives for a reason. Bringing something we must learn and we are led to those who help us most to grow, if we let them.
