I leaned in to understand the feeling that permeated
and flowed from those eyes

immersing my soul in her fluid spirit

I was concerned that I would ruin all the pencil work I had done by adding the eye lashes,
I was so happy that they turned out just fine!
I suppose practice will help me to feel more confident.
I forgot to take a photo while the above art was still a sketch
but
so that you get an idea
here is another big eyed girl sketch, this is how she began:
