That's excellent, really well done for pencils. My wife dabbles with colour pencils now and again. I think it's a lot harder to get anything too life like using coloured pencils myself, so that picture is brilliant.
Here's a couple of my wifes old pics that I scanned ages ago. Obviously resized and doesn't look as good as they do on paper.

If you're in the Manchester area, 50 years of the Sunday Times Magazine photos:

Quote:

The exhibition includes work from some of the biggest names in the photography and the writing world.
The Sunday Times Magazine will be celebrating its 50th Anniversary with a special free exhibition. The exhibitionâ€™s regional tour will be launching at CUBE on Wednesday 11th April following a hugely successful run at the Saatchi Gallery in London, which attracted over 200,000 visitors and had to be extended twice due to popular demand.

This 50 year retrospective includes some of the worldâ€™s finest photographers who have worked for the Sunday Times Magazine. Photographers featured include Don McCullin, David Bailey, Eve Arnold, Snowdon, Richard Avedon, Eugene Richards, Sam Taylor-Wood, Terry O'Neill, Chris Floyd and Stuart Franklin. This exhibition also highlights the contribution made to the Magazine by renowned writers such as Ian Fleming, Martin Amis, Bruce Chatwin, Jilly Cooper, Zoe Heller, James Fox and Nicholas Tomalin.

I might take issue with Jilly Cooper ;)
