A super drawing, and the red background has great impact.

Well done Denise. Impressive and emotional.

A very powerful portrait.

My four year old grandson started school in September and his reception class is called Martin Luther King, so I am sure they will learn all about him later. The other half is named after Helen Keller, which I think is a great way to remember these two wonderful people. Excellent drawing Denise, works well with the red paper.

What a great idea to have such a vivid background Denise. A lovely portrait and fitting tribute Denise.

Justice has been done. So much with just two pencils!

Wow! This is such a powerful image Denise.

The red was an inspired choice Denise, a sensitively drawn portrait.

I didn't want October to go by without the acknowledgment of the celebration of Black History Month. I hope I have done justice to this great man in obtaining a likeness. I used two charcoal pencils for this, didn't know if it would work on the red paper but I had a dream, it might.
