Description This is a sketch of Bonnie Rideout, a Scottish fiddler champion. I'm not sure how many people are familiar with her work, but I urge you guys to go and see her performances or check out one of her cds. The emotion and energy she pours into her pieces are amazing.
I've spent almost a month working on this sketch and I'm at a point where I need some critique. Does she have enough values? Do her curls need more body? Are the proportions correct?
This was done with a 4H and a 2B pencil (the few pencils I had on me at the time.)

I like it. Especially the more shadowy part of her face and the violin. Her hair's a little "blah".... Kinda idealized, but then again, I don't know what she looks like so you could be accurate.

Thank you for the critique! I'm so happy to finally recieve some on this! I do have to agree after all the detail I spent on the rest of the piece the hair does appear blah. I'll have to email you the original souce. I'll have to spend sometime on her hair now.

Trying to be more active in DA and online in general. Can't wait to see what you'll do with this pic next.
