Paresh: I have been learning sketching for the past 2-3 months with the help of books. Only now I have a few sketches that are not bad. It is far from perfect. But I am glad that you liked it
Thulasy: Yes, you are so right. Drawing the eyes is one of the most difficult part in sketching the face. I still have not mastered it. I think it will take me months of practice to get the expressions right. The sad look is by accident:-)
Maya: Thanks… Yes, you should give it a try. Get some good books on pencil sketching and start sketching. You will be sketching away in no time. My problem is that I only spend about 30-45 minutes a day on this even though I want to spend more time. BTW it is quite addictive
Dear Alexis,
NAMASTE!
Good Morning!
Good effort and appealing to eyes!
You reminded me my dearest who is an excellent artist.
Friend,a picture can speak volume.So,keep on doing.
Wishing you a beautiful weekend,
Sasneham,

As always, I find great peace in going through your pages…I like the work… the way you have sketched the two of them together is good as I can see a vague outline or may be none that separates the two…
Sheeba: The get the correct emotion in the eyes in a sketch is very difficult. It happened by accident. I am not reached a level where I can draw the emotion that I want. Still a lot to learn and practice.

Is this a newly acquired talent or am I privy to it for the first time? Anyway, I see Alexis – the perfectionist here too

Really nice… I always wanted to learn pencil sketching, but thought it was very difficult. I think I should give it a try. Thanks for the inspiration.
