A stunning portrait , clearly a very talented young woman.I can understand what she means as there is more character in an older face , they have that been there done that look to them.

Fabulous portrait Lily

Thank you everyone for lovely feedback, I’ll be sure and tell Lily. She goes back to college today after the summer break, she’ll be in her second year. It does take her a while to draw these portraits, but fabulous results for someone so young, who still doubts her ability! But, then again don’t we all!

A4 pencil portrait by my granddaughter, Lily. She loves drawing the ‘older generation’, she says they have more character!
