Description
I tried to do a portrait of Meli, one of our most beloved artists on Renderosity. She is truly an angel here on earth, as loving a person as ever was. I hope I did some justice to her magnificent beauty.

I knew right away who it was! I think maybe she is Renderosity's angel muse;-)
Yes, you have captured the inner beauty of this lovely lady.
Great drawing
Excellent drawing, very penetrating eyes!
excellent!! It is so incrredibly hard to do a portrait and have it come across so exact. the eyes have such life, and done in graphite, that is incredible, the lips have exceptional detail and texture. I feel this deserves many a vote. Thank you as always for sharing your wonderful talent with all of us.
Beautifully done!!!
You did a truly remarkable job with her visage. It definitely looks like her! It is very hard to do justice to her inner beauty with an exterior picture of what's seen with our eyes but you captured it well in the expression of her eyes. More love is needed in our interaction with one another, Meli is great with her expression of it. Great Work and a Wonderful Tribute!
I fear my limited way to thank you won't ever explain to you how blessed I feel in knowin you. Your words on me.. theya re something I don't deserve, but if your sweeta nd pure heart feels me like this, then the gifts my life is filled of, are incresing even more in number and quality.Love you, thank you for this awesome piece of art :)

Simply beautiful! Really love the portrait. Eyes are most lively and vivid.
I could've sworn I'd commented on this before! I'm so honoured to have Meli so close to my heart and look forward to finally meeting her in a couple of months if all goes well! Thanks also to Cassie for singing your praises as a person tonight, as that's why I went to your gallery and am commenting on this beautiful piece. They are two of my best friends ever and I love them both so much... thanks Lorraine for capturing Meli's sweet grace here :-)
