This is utterly, utterly spectacular. The realism of contour, shading, texture are masterful; you're very clearly a brilliant portraitist.
But I clicked on this because the *expression* of these eyes nearly pierced me through. It could be terror, it could be anger; whatever the emotion, it's forceful, formidable--nearly breathtaking. As a verbal, rather than visual artist, I can only guess that this is a virtuoso performance in terms of technique. But the fact that it's *compelling*, commanding, disturbing--and the fact that this gaze will stay with me long after I leave your page--is, to me, what makes it high art.

It's not just a convincing portrait but to convey the soul is an accomplishment. Your work sir 'breathes'

Me encanta el realismo que tienen los ojos, realmente expresan mucho, no solo en este dibujo sino en todos los que he vistoo.... impresionante!

Your control of the middle values -- those areas that are neither very light nor very dark -- is spot-on, such that you present the subject as seen in life rather than as it might be presented in higher contrast photography. Edges are vitally important throughout; by careful manipulation and blending where necessary you depict sharp creases and gentle curves extremely well. The piece would be far less striking without the confident inclusion of vivid lights, both physical (as part of an element's structure) and reflective (as light bouncing off a surface). Personally, I find the eyes more intriguing than the full face, so this isolated composition is quite compelling. The temperature that the under-color imparts to the skin is terrific in that it is warm without being garish. A simply beautiful -- and more than that, powerful -- piece.

I really love this! These eyes remind me of John Locke from Lost.
