Beautiful! I love how the sketch is so detailed at the top, and as it flows downward becomes more of a suggestion. There is a feeling of a slight summer breeze here that is very refreshing.

This is such a strange one that you pulled off. I mean, obviously, everyone loves it and they should. Your model was beautiful and gave you such a great expression to work with, and it's awesome how beautiful a WOMAN she is, rather than a girl. (Worth bonus points here at DA, right?)
So yes, you nailed the rendering - it's a fine, beautiful drawing, minimal in all the right ways, lush in all the right ways (i.e., there's as much restraint here as expression, and that's great).
But how the hell did you imbue the image with such motion and life and still make her look sitting so absolutely still? That whole downward sweep is gorgeous, and does not in the least compute. It makes no sense, the result makes no sense, and yet still it utterly, completely WORKS.
Defiance/contrariness like this is genius.

WHAT IS SHE THINKING ABOUT?
HOW WELL SHE WAS DRAWN?
WHEN SHE GETS UP AND WALKS AWAY,
WILL SHE BECOME X-PENSIVE WOMAN?
SORRY
I LIKE THIS VERY MUCH.
THANKS

she's beautiful. everything from the shoulders down has such a downward flow -- so unique. the detail on her hair is breathtaking...

Clarity, you're sketches have been blowing me away lately, and this one is no exception. The motion in this, the way everything points to her face is just outstanding, really well done.

Wow! That's incredible. I love the shading and agree with everyone else about the hair. Utterly fantastic. I don't know what you call the technique used on her body, but whatever it is it gives the sketch a fluid, dreamy feeling. Does that come from smudging it? Just a brilliant sketch. Great. All other positive adjectives that I left out, just go ahead and apply.

this is amazing work. i love how the attention is focused on her face and hair, and the rest is sort of blurred, in a linear way. it reminds me of some drawings by david hockney.

I like the ability of it to stand out yet to flow- simple and sweet, with a complicated hidden twist. Good Work
