Awww Amanda...I like the really colorful one better...but this one is nice too!

That's alright, Cheryl - I rather like that one, too, but it does something different.

Agreed, I like all three of the ones you have posted Amanda

Yes that's better - smiling and not startled, nice one Amanda!

I like them all. They are all you if this is the one you feel is most accurate. You look like you have had fun with these.

Thank you, Ros, Debs and Gudrun. Yes, I had fun; working "backwards" by applying light colours onto black is an interesting and entertaining exercise; I can recommend it.

nice work you are an excellent artist,.I would love to be able to do so well in pencil, wow ,

Thank you, Alan. To be honest, these are excellent pencils, which helps.

Very nice work. I need to get some colour into my drawings too.

What can I say? This is me. It's probably my most accurate recent SP, and there's a smile! ~~ There is a series of six in-progress shots on my blog - you'll find it at http://amanda-bates-artist.blogspot.com/2013/06/self-portrait-in-derwent-drawing-pencil.html
