[angeloverlooked]

Dang, these are amazing!!

[butterflychick84]

Wow, I've always wished I could be so artistic, but never had the talent!! Thats just awesome!

[curleQ94]

how do you blend, i got a pastel art set by derwent for 20$ at a swap meet but its hard to use, how do you do hair so good? what do you use to set, is hairspray okay?

[SmecksDotCom]

Apologies for taking so long to reply - I was MIA for a bit there. I use Rembrandt soft pastels - which are super easy to blend. I made the mistake of getting hard pastels when I first attempted this and they were horrendous. I use some sort of spray fixative to set the pastels - I got it from an arts & crafts store. I've used hairspray for pencil drawings in a pinch, but I prefer the actual spray art fixative.

[SmecksDotCom]

p.s. Be careful with the hairspray - if you spray it too heavy you can ruin hours of work in mere seconds :P

[bearass769]

you use pastels for the backround

[HailshamGirls]

wow! your amazing! how old are you, and how long does it take you to do each portait?

[SmecksDotCom]

Im O-L-D in internet years (you know, similar to dog years translated to people years). I'm 38 years old... that would be like...dead... in internet years?

[MCR777greenday]

im 13 so that makes me like... 29 in internet years?

[ParadiseEarth1]

Wow Mary! Just as impressive the first time we saw you draw Toana.*****

[SmecksDotCom]

Oh my gosh, that was a long, long time ago by now wasn't it? You know if I'm not mistaken, I think you might have been my very first subscriber! You hold a special place in my heart! I am so happy you are still watching!

[irenejoy07]

[kelseyfortune]

[lotti1990]

[notes1980]

Wow, I'm so amazed at how lifelike your drawings are......totally amazing, I had to sub you to see some more.

Take care, n@tes.

[BloodyJaime]

FRANKI!! wow your really good... I'm jealous... 5 anyway

[LeSaMilano]

Mary you are soooo talented! I know I am repeating myself but I find myslef plum out of adjectives when it comes to your art.

[RiddleSpider]

Very nice and loved the music choice. Perfect choice.

[LaJetts]

God, I sound completely cheesy...it just is a deep, honest, reflective look.

I'm shutting up now...lol - great pic, & please don't tell me how silly i sound... :)

[LaJetts]

i find your drawings not only beautiful to watch, but relaxing (obviously it is not the fast-forward effect)...it's watching the "life" you impart into your work. Her eyes look so like they are saying so much...

and her hair is so dimensional. sry, probably not the correct terminology when speaking of art. You've given me an idea for a different kind of request...

[FrankiFairy]

what are my eyes saying? lol.

shes such a talented artist

[LaJetts]

i am really not that great at expressing myself, but...well, obviously this is what it makes me feel - so that being said...it makes me feel like someone has either asked something of or is trying to get something from you & your eyes say (again, to me) "you already know the answer...it's not that complicated...it's right in front of you..."

[FrankiFairy]

thats really beautiful. thank you :D x

[LaJetts]

your quite welcome :)

[FrankiFairy]

omg squeel!

I luffs this sooo much! I want it to put on my wall lol.

Thanks Mary, you're such a star. Best artist ever! screw Picasso!

[SmecksDotCom]

You are very welcome Franki, I'm happy that you liked it. Hope to still see you around :)

[SmecksDotCom]

Well I wish you would already. I had actually looked in the forums to see if you had a request in there, thought about messaging you to ask for a picture but didn't want to seem pushy (especially since i've fallen behind a bit on requests), so I've been waiting patiently :)

[SmecksDotCom]

Thanks gnr!

[ynotbegoodtoall]

The hair, eyes, lips, just beautiful! I can't believe how real the hair looks! The strands seem so thin, to have been created by hand!

[SmecksDotCom]

I have to admit I think hair is becoming one of my favorite things to draw. I'm glad you enjoyed the results. Thanks for the kind words!

[dekj74]

Just as usual... BBBBBEAUTIFUL!!!

[SmecksDotCom]

Thank Yoooooooou! :)

[garycuk]

Incredible, don't forget to email about getting some free music to use x

[SmecksDotCom]

Yes, I need to do that Gary! I'll track you down today hopefully.

[smivadee]

[SmecksDotCom]

Hey smivadee! Nice to see you are still around :) thank you much for the nice comment!

[prestmackine]

Thats really good can't wait till I'm drawn!

[SmecksDotCom]

Your time is creeping closer :)

[Lunatik21]

Yaaaay More artwork. This one is pretty nice and I think the music actually went along with this one very well for some reason : D

Keep up the excellent work ^_^

[SmecksDotCom]

I have been waiting to use some music by this group. I'm glad you liked it with this picture also. They have another track that is my favorite but didn't seem to match up for some reason. Thanks for the kind words Lunatik :)
