Wind etching is one of my personal favorites when it comes to texture shading. Magnificent. He would be honored.

Absolutely stunning, the shading and the actual technical ability here is phenomenal.. Hands are notoriously tough to do!!

Thank you! They are hard, but they're also my favorite thing to do. Thanks again!

You know some of my favorite Van Gogh's are copies of Millet that he did, these are very beautiful.

Thanks. I think I've decided that copies are good because they make you realize how much of your own artist you really are (or how much another artist is their own artist). Thanks again.

Copies can be very instructive and when they are done with love they can be very beautiful and unique.

Great drawing, well done with the use of the white highlights and pencil in general. Just a copy, you say, but it is still a genuine expression for the impression you got from watching (most likely) a reproduction of the work of the Master..!

thats crazy-good. I google-imaged "hands" yesterday, because I draw them all the time, and I actually saved this one to my computer to draw it later. You did a great job!
