This piece in brown cardstock (4 1/2" x 6 1/2") is done in permanent marker. I used my new white PITT artist pen to colour the background in, the whites of the eyes were painted using my new Sharpie water based white marker. It seems a bit whiter than the waterproof PITT pen.
I found this quote on 'eyes' to share with you today, I love quotes.
"Where words are restrained, the eyes often talk a great deal." - Samuel Richardson.
Happy PPF!

The quote is great and your painting's eyes match it well. I haven't found good white pen here. Eyes have aa grea role of expression.
