Pencil drawing by 16 year old Shania McDonagh

How wonderful to develop a God given talent to this level. When I first saw this I thought it was a B&W photo. Wonder how long it took to do this drawing? Enlarge to see the detail. Fantastic!

I have a family member who is like wise talented. Even as a small child he could do some amazing things with just a pencil. He is twelve now and starting to expand more in to different types of art. It is amazing the talent of some children but it is hard to find a way to make a living in art any more science computer graphics has taken over.
She has rare talent just hope she can find a way to use in the future.

This can't be pencil, can it? Look at the detail in the material around the hood and the sleeve! If it is pencil this girl is one of a kind! I just can't imagine spending the amount of time this must have taken. Did she start it when she was eleven. Well done is an understatement!!!

In my opinion what a terrible loss if she can't make a living doing what she obviously loves and has the talent to do.

I think everyone who looks at the image will have the same sense of awe. I hope she never loses the drive to "do her thing".

This picture was published in a magazine. I was young when I saw this pic. Loved it. She is very talented. I can tell it is pencil. A friend of mine drew in pencil. Cannot recall the magazine that this picture was featured in. Is such a beautiful picture that I will never forget it. She made it more beautiful.
