I found this nifty photo and decided to work on it while waiting for the hurricane to come. She kept me occupied all day long.

This is really nice. Love the nose and mouth. Lace is really nice too!  
Hopefully the hurricane didn’t hit you hard.

This is a beautiful portrait! You have not only captured the person, but the style of the drawing fits the time period so we’ll. Love this. Thanks for sharing it.
