Just found your work Penny and it is excellent! Graphite is nice to worrk with and you certainly know how to work with it! Lovely.

This is a nice, sensitive portrait. I think the receiver should be pleased an grateful since a portrait gives the subject a little touch of immortality (the finest gift of the artist). Your technical work is very nice. The presence of two people enhances the work since each forms the "background" for the other.

Great image Penny. again though, use a black pencil to outline or shade some of those darker areas, you'll be amazed at how much it lifts the picture. Keep it up, the suit is fantastic! xx

Artist Reply: Hi Hollie, thanks for the tips. I do have a few questions though, I used to outline all the time and was told not to. Was told that outlining took away from the work. So what should I do? Where exactly should I outline? Do you mean all around the bodies, throughout the bodies. Maybe that's what I did wrong. Thanks again.
