Last week I emailed her regarding the type of paper she uses. She wrote back saying that she checked this blog out and that I have a "great eye". It's always nice to be encouraged by someone. She also encouraged me not to be too afraid to go darker, and that my portraits were erring on the side of caution. That's good advice.
Right from the outset of the shading I'm making sure that I'm spending the time to really acheive the darks that I'm after. It's a bit scary after dealing with a clean white piece of paper for a number of hours.
