I can't get over how much I love the way you did her eyes and the shape of her lips! So beautiful.

Nice pencil work.  Is this just colored pencil, or do you have color sticks (same stuff as colored pencil but in stick form and without the wood - if you don't have them I think you'd like them)?  The line thickness in some of the areas here almost suggest color sticks.

JUST colored pencils. But both Verithin and regular Prismacolor which have different lead thicknesses of course.

And hardness if my memory serves me correctly, which means the Prismacolor tend to break easier.  But I still love 'em anyway.

Well colored pencils in general are soft. You just have to be careful. Even though I try to be careful they will still often SNAP on me. And then I get all pissed off.

I hear ya there buddy.  I get the same thing some times with my China markers (they're great for covering up some mistakes).  Sometimes I think somebody dropped them at the store before I bought them because I'll go to sharpen them, or to unpeel them and they break every quarter inch!  Aaarrgh!

I'm no Marilyn fan (overdone).
But I am a fan of this artwork!
