"drawing of a women"

I haven't been drawing with charcoal for very long. i'm addicted to my oils, but i've had quite a few people ask if i could do something for them in charcoal. so i figured i'd give it a try and play around with it. Just looking for some feedback and or some suggestions to help me improve. thanks.

Wow that's really good. Your style and the feeling in this piece is very powerful. It looks like you are able to be very loose with the pencil.

Hi Smashing_Glass,
I think this drawing is exellent!

Are you only using charcoal?

I really like this portrait. It's as if the essence of the person were on that page. Good job. Toby

I like it a lot, too, and it does look refreshingly free. Sometimes really realistic drawings can get old and it's nice to see or work on something different once in a while. Great job!
