Jenny said...: Nice portrait! Not stressed like the others. I like the change in pose. Though portrait eyes are supposed to be a tad larger than in real life, these could be a tad smaller. Your emphasis on the eyes, though, show the most important part of a portrait to me. I always make my upper and lower lid areas too round which does not work at all.

Your Christmas card design is really cute and fun.; October 21, 2007 5:08 AM

Dave said...: You're so well organized...Christmas cards already! How do you manage to draw yourself smoking? Cigarette in one hand and pen in the other? :); October 21, 2007 10:08 PM

Anita Davies said...: Thanks Jenny. Yes, I always make the eyes larger when I draw me...I think it's because I like them about myself.

Thanks Lorraine, yes, much less stressed.

Thanks Suzanne. I see this as quite personal too, like I dropped my guard for a moment?

Sadly Dave, I have learned to do almost anything with a cigarette in my hand. TUT!

Thanks Marie and Anita.

Thanks Serena...It's a fascinating subject to focus on oneself.
