Can’t believe this is pencil. I thought it was a black and white photograph.

You’ve captured the emotion so well. And those eyes – they are like pools of light, with hidden depths.

Nice work!!

Thanks everyone. I’m surprised this has been so popular on here and everywhere else.. there’s not much to it. I’ll try to get some more pencil work up soon.. I just don’t have copies of them on the computer anymore, have to re-shoot them. Cheers again.

Johdie, this is superb. I had to take a closer look from the groups area, to make sure it wasn’t a photograph submitted to the wrong group!!

this reminds me of those old school comics, like 1950’s or something? I wish i knew more so i could explain it better, but the girl would have had yellow blonde hair and exactly that expression while tlaking on the phone. Brilliant I love it
