Very good Pamela ... there's a stare!

Very nice Pamela

That is a beautiful portrait - so intense and honest.

My family say the eyes are wrong.doh!

Lovely portrait Pamela, hard to believe it's your first in pencil

It looks very sensitively done. My rule of thumb for eyes is that the distance between them is the width of one eye, which would make them too far apart. But I have never seen you so I could be completely wrong. Very good first attempt.

Your first? It’s a powerful portrait. I love the way you tackled the hair.

Thanks everyone for all your compliments and advice Linda. Portraiture is not my genre but boredom won out!
