This is gorgeous! It is so life like... it actually looks like an old photo of one of my relatives taken in the 60's.. I love it!

Artist Reply: Hi Penny. Thanks for your comments. It was the first graphite pencil drawing I had completed for over 20 years so I was really pleased. I refreshed my memory on the technique by getting advice from a pencil/coloured pencil blog site called Scribbletalk.com. The best of the best American and British artists give great advice to other artists all over the world. Check it out. regards, Richard.

Artist Reply: Many thanks Joanna. This is my first graphite pencil drawing after over 20 years so I'm happy with the result. The technique is miles apart from using coloured pencils. Thanks for your comments.
