This started as a pencil sketch in college (about 100 years ago) , then I took a picture of it, and just about every filter and texture in my current bag of tricks played a role now to come up with this. 
This may not be the final version, but I'm pretty pleased with it so far.
ALL thoughts and suggestions solicited!

Really sweet , Sandy. Beautifully developed- what else would you do? I love it "as is". Just curious...was this a "real" drawing or did it start as a photograph? Either way, totally charming.

This is great, Sandy! The simplicity, composition, and those gorgeous eyes make it. It appears as an authentic pencil sketch, and that says a lot.

The minimal artwork and overall softness is just perfect here Sandy.  I would say you are there - for my tastes certainly. :)
