8 x 11 pencil 3B I went to the Getty museums yesterday with my daughter, it was beautiful. We got a chance to see incredible art paintings like Monet's "IRIS" and many others but at one moment I got a chance to see my daughter looking up into the light.
The only thing I can say is I believe in something greater than ourselves even more glorious.
So "look up" for there is more than what the mere eye sees.
Blessings to all this EASTER. NFS

What a fun day in the Getty ha? and a great sketch, Dominique.
I love how you work with pencil.
Happy Easter to you too.
XO, Irit
Thank you IRIT it was a great day.
You're daughter is so beautiful... I'm surprised I don't see more work with her as the subject. I would love to draw or paint such a gorgeous young woman!
She is, thank you Sheila. I have drawn her a few times before but yes your right I do intent to do a lot more with her as a subject. She even asked me to do a big piece so I might just include her in that.
This is beautiful drawing of a beautiful girl, Dominique. Your love shows. lovely lovely lovely! Happy Easter! Liz H.
Thank you LIZ :)
Not only beautiful, but sensitive; I agree with Irit about your pencil skills. Thanks for posting and sharing your daughter with us.
Thank you Angela, She doesn't always pose for me but I try catching her like this.

Thank you MICHELLE back at you. have a great weekend
Great drawing, Dominique. Wonderful core shadows. How nice to visit the Getty - not only for the great art, but for the amazing views from up there.
Edward,
that view was spectacular, very cool going up there. Thanks for the comment on my sketch.
Love the shadow along her neck!
Suzanne, Thank you I think that's the reason I decided to draw this pose. These shadow really appealed to me
This is a really beautiful drawing, I love the pose and the sense of light you really captured. Wonderful!
Hey Carrie, Thanks for coming by and leaving a comment.
I love your sentiment, and the sketch of your daughter. Thanks for visiting my blog too!
DEB, thank you, I appreciate you coming by also.
It's amazing to have these sudden moments of insight, isn't it... lovely drawing.
WOW I REALLY REALLY LIKE THIS.
This is a stunning portrait. The lines of her neck and the expression on her face tell a wonderful story.
Cathy, Yes your right. They just come upon me with such determination and bring such peace and perfect knowledge of "Yes that's right" but I wish they're were more.
David, Thank you : )
MIki, thank you for seeing a story too .
What a simple, yet BEAUTIFUL sketch! I love it. Glad that you and your daughter had a wonderful time at the museum. :)
Thank you Akiko, we did the view is quite beautiful there also.
Great drawing, I think I missed this one!
Adebanji, you sure did. Your the one I really wanted you to see and get your opinion because I think I want to develop it more maybe with paint maybe just a stronger pencil charcoal I don't really know. Anyway I'm glad you got a chance to see it now, thank you. Hope you Easter was fabulous.
Great technique!!
