@Rtist, Bruno, and PommyJosh: Thanks for the encouragement. It means a lot.
@K Verma: You have put into words, eloquently and precisely, what inspired me to draw this woman's face. She smiles with her entire face, with the smile beginning modestly at the lips and then travelling, intesifying, and coming to rest in full bloom in her eyes.
Regarding the model: As they say in German, "ein sußes Geschöpf." [A lovely creation. Implying, from the hand of a higher being.]
With creative regards to all of you,
Otto Hinckelmann
