This is a late (but better than never) birthday present for my dear friend Katherine. She loves Adele and so do I; her music is song from her heart, and she is so down to earth. I gave it Katherine today and she loved it. So did my art teacher. In the top left corner it says; 'For Someone Like You', the title, cheesy but true.

My first drawing of Adele is here; [link] . Hopefully i have shown some improvement :D

There is a slight shine on the left side, but this was the best out of almost 20 photo's that I took. Enjoy ;)

I know that it is too late for this picture, but it might come in handy sometime.  I have recently submitted a Minimising Graphite Shine Tutorial which shows a simple but extremely effective way of minimising graphite shine when taking a photo of a graphite drawing.
