Considerably more proficient than mine Marjorie! Excellent portrait, love the dress.

A marvelous portrait of your Danish grandmother, Marjorie! It's a delightful portrait and lovely features and gaze, her dress with frill and gusset ribboned style dress, shows how immaculate they dressed in those days with white frills around her neck like a ruff. The carbon shading turned out so well and like a photograph in black and white, so good in all respects, well done!

This is an excellent portrait Marjorie, very well done.

You are rather good at portraits Marjorie.

Her dress is very well painted Marjorie as is the rest of the portrait.

A very good portrait.

Excellent portrait Marjorie.

Super Marjorie, love the colour palette, very attesting

oops arresting!

Always top class portraits Marjorie!

Such subtle use of colour. Superb portrait Marjorie

Excellent Marjorie. Love the subtle tones in her dress.

Wow she is looking right through me. What did I do?

Lovely work Marjorie. It looks like one of those old fashioned portraits of bygone years.

They were frightened to smile in those days….

So well painted Marjorie of this very dignified looking lady, with a rather unnervy , stare.

This is so good Marjorie. I love how the colours in the dress are also in the skin tones etc.

Excellent Marjorie, and those colours are lovely
