Thanks !!!
It seems just right to me, at least as much as I can tell from the thumbprint. Shading/shadows define it, so you know whether they capture what you want to express. How large is the work?

it's awesome ... are you building a portfolio?? you could display at banks, pharmacies (no kidding - some guy has 5-6 photos at mine!) ... depending on how long it takes you - you can set up at art shows and sketch someone there!! and/or paint ...

you've opened a wonderful world ... keep painting!!! you do marvelous work and detail ... congrats!

Hi Blue, I think it's a lovely piece of work!
I cant draw for toffee myself, but as far as the shading goes I think it's perfect!
I perticularly like the part just below the nose to just under the mouth. Those lips are perfect.
Respect
Buttercup

Default Wow :)
I think it's hauntingly beautiful. Someone made a comment about the realism of the hair, and I guess that's true. More shading would create more of a dark quality, but it depends on what you're trying to achieve there. Good luck to you, you're a talented artist, so take ALL of our words as people on the outside, looking in Heather

I think your portrait is very nice, love the placement of head on paper and how it is cropped. Have you ever heard of Wet Canvas? It is a site for artists of all kinds and they will critique and compliment you on your work. Plus there are online tutorials availbable and all kinds of resources. Here is the link:
