Description EDIT 2016 JUL : a  7 frames progress of this drawing can be found here .

EDIT 2016 JUN : a new upload, with a bit more depth recently added to the bottom part Working on a new portrait ... coming soon

Drawn after a beautiful photo by Boas73, I loved the mood.
I spent some time drawing hair in parts between the weeds
I had in mind giving more details but I declare I'm done.
This piece would deserve a wider scale, and maybe a better approach.
Hope you will like it anyway. Comments and critics always welcome.

Looks tricky to draw but you pulled it off, the hair sits behind the tall grass beautifully. That's a lot of work and the white grass lines are clean and the depth in the grass works well without being overdone which adds to the atmosphere. I like how it's just suggested in places and the mood works well.

This is a stunningly beautiful drawing that I initially took for a photo. It is an instant fave for sure. I can't even begin to comprehend how you did the straw grass and her hair in the same picture. Magnificent.

Have a super day.

Thanks for submitting to  .

Straws and ahir was the challenge, you're right, and time consuming too as I couldn't erase hair to make straws appear !!  Thank you so much.

I agree with the above comment that you don't need more detail. Your work always inspires me!

As a fan, you're not objective anymore
Just kidding, thank you so much. I'm just not fully satisfied with the light rendering, could have been better with weeds shading, a larger scale would have permitted that .I'd say there's a lack of contrast in the light parts ...

Like all your work it came out exceptional.  I don't think any more detail was needed.

I thought about more accuracy with blur and shadows. Thank you for this definitive point of view
