Ahhh, I'm sorry. I didn't see your comment! (I was pretty new and didn't know how to check replies at the time). I am hoping to make some time to enter. :D Good luck to us both. ^^

Thank you so much sjennon! I'd love to see one from you too. ^^

WELCOME MARI!!! I'm so glad you made it onto Steemit. I can't wait to see all the wonderful artwork you will post on here <3 I will be rooting for you from the bottom of my heart ^^

Oh, sounds great! :) I think that would be amazing to see. Good luck! I look forward to seeing it. ^ ^

Wow, I just want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for this really thoughtful and detailed post! You words really give me hope that maybe one day I can achieve realism too. :) Thank you!

Thank you very much, kind sir @lanceman :D

WOWOW!! These pieces of artwork are SO GOOD! I can't believe this was all done on pen and paper. Just the sheer level of detail is phenomenal!! My favorite has to be the 3rd picture. I have no idea how

Ooh, I enjoy your foreshadowing affect here. It looks nice. ^ ^ And the lady's expression is so peculiar and lovely. :D

Wow! This is so great. I can tell you really understand the concept of shading and highlights that make this picture look so much like a photograph! I wish I had the talents to do realism like you did!

Beautiful work! I put you up in the list. I used a post from steemit for your sample. ^^

I added you to the list now. Thanks!

Hi! You are now on the list. I used your Fantasy Thursday Doodle for the sample link. :)

Thank you @rezatoga :)
