I had the vision for this after looking at some Maxfield Parrish and Parrish-inspired artwork. Of course, it doesn't do Parrish justice as it's not in color.

Trés joli! I'm impressed! Perhaps just a little thing... I think that it looks a litle bit like a sketch. You should perhaps put color or make more shadow. I don't know if you see what I mean (I don't speek English very well). Anyway it's very cool. I also draw. Go and see my website: http://perso.wanadoo.fr/blanc/alice/dessins/fr/

This is probably one of the most involved sketches of people currently included in your gallery... the kind not taken from a photo, I mean... I'm sure some people would think mister jude I'm-so-pretty law is "involved".... ahem... Yeah I'm over it, really 1

Erin your drawing is being posted in my gallery at #827 I hope you and everyone else will take a look and see if I did okay. Thank you for telling me it was okay to post it for you to see. I had to down size it to fit on the gallery. I hope it comes out okay. Latter keep up the great work.

This is a marvelous picture, I particularly love the wings (I think they are just the right size personally). I also sense a good impression of height in this picture as though the figure were perched atop something that was impossibly tall. Nice work once again.

:-) Erin Stevenson O'Connor replies: "That was indeed the effect I was going for. Glad you enjoy it! My favorite part is the wings too -- I see in retrospect most everything else could use improvement. 1"

I just noticed my comment sounded a little like the last person who commented. Sorry about that, i didn't realize untill after I had submitted it.

:-) Erin Stevenson O'Connor replies: "No worries, since I didn't read y'all's e-mails at the same time, I didn't notice that yours echoed the ones previous yours. Nothing wrong with repetition there anyway. 1"

This is a wonderful drawing. I love the detail you put into it. It must have taken so long to do the wings and angel wings are so hard to do. Yours look great though. My mom is a huge Maxfield Parrish fan. She has his art all over the house and even a few in my room. A couple of original prints too if I'm not mistaken. Beautiful drawing once again.

:-) Erin Stevenson O'Connor replies: "The feathers are indeed time-consuming, but rather therapeutic, I find. My mom is a Maxfield Parrish fan too -- we actually had a dog named after him! My mom and I have a lot of the same taste in art."

This one is beautiful! What I like most is the composition of it. Your eye travels all around the drawing and back again. It has a balanced feel, both visually and in the sense of how she is sitting. Wonderfully done! I really like her face and hair too! Good job!

Pretty wings!

This is a very good picture the wings especially. But something is a little odd to me if you don't mind me saying ...her position looks awkward to me because she looks as though she is lifting her legs and holding them in the air instead of resting them on the bench... that's just my opinion pay no mind 1 ...I still think it is really good so keep up with it!
