Portrait of Alda - Lithograph

My friend Alda is a great subject as she has such a wonderful smile and her eyes are alive with mischief and humour.  This time I tried to capture Alda not in a painting but creating a Lithograph - a method of printing using a stone, creating an image on the stone, and then capturing the image in multiple runs using ink.

Alda - Lithograph 121inx12in

This is the first Litho I have done and it turned out the drawing was quite a challenge - you have to be right on because it is very difficult to revise.  I am happy with this portrait as the first Litho I have produced.
