Artist's Comments
Wow - okay here goes - showing off my meager skills from long ago - this is my first WIP on this portrait. My first pencil portrait in many years.
The model is a lovely lady here on DA (she will probably turn me into a toad for saying this) the title Heaven's Kiss is due to the fact the Heavens surely kissed the Earth when she was sent to be with us. I do hope you approve - and let me know honestly what you think of this...

 The hair is wonderful. I always have so much trouble with hair.
Face is coming along nicely. You have the shape right, for sure. -- Proud founder of the dA Steampunk club "There's a disease that actually makes the spleen migrate throughout the body ...I want it." - *AveSetsuna Thank you very much - yeah the hair looks like it is gonna take the brunt of the labour, still needs detail work on the right
 -- A Dream is but a Fantasy that has not yet been turned into Reality... ummm - by me   beautiful
-- Thank Heaven! the crisis- The danger is past, And the lingering illness Is over at last- And the fever called "Living" Is conquered at last. ~Edgar Allan Poe  Thank you lil Sis  -- A Dream is but a Fantasy that has not yet been turned into Reality... ummm - by me  very nice Scott
 a great start! Thank you very much my friend!
-- A Dream is but a Fantasy that has not yet been turned into Reality... ummm - by me  Not bad considering you havn't done it in a long time, but drawing is like riding a bike, or tying your shoes...It's something you can't forget how to do.
-- Why is delivering things in a car called "Shipment" while delivering things by boat is called "Cargo" ?  Your first pencil portrait in many years? Oh, man, you're very good! I love that contrast between the face and the hair.
Thanks - now lets hope I don't fall off this bike
 -- A Dream is but a Fantasy that has not yet been turned into Reality... ummm - by me  Nice job. Love the hair also. Very beautiful eyes as well!
