Description
This is something which I drew way back in '96.It's drawn entirely by hand, taking approximately 3 or 4 hours to complete.
It is a composite of an old 1930's photograph, my wife's facial features and my own imagination.
Hope you enjoy viewing it.

That is so awesome... I love the old 20's and 30's style of clothing.

I love the hat too... I especially love how you've shaded the hair to vanish into the darkness of the hat without loosing the head shape. Really very good.

Really lovely. It reminds me of the "Gibson Girls," famous in the early 1900's.

It's very pretty, classic. It actually reminds me of the begining of Titanic, where Rose is looking up at the ship.

Great work, very impressive. The only thing I don't like is the border, it doesn't do anything for the drawing and distracts the eye.
I like the way you've chosen to show the body only through shadows & the opaque hat.

By far, you are one the most exceptional freehand artists on DeviantArt. Keep up the great works.
