I went to visit some friends the other day. Linda was just sitting so casually but in such an interesting position I had to try and capture her. As I look at this again, she reminds me of a cat poised on top of the ottoman. Then again, yoga guru and pretzel also popped up in my mind.

Great sketch, Sheila. I feel like I'm there, and enjoying a cup of tea, it's so immediate and lively. Linda certainly is limber!
Hi Sheila
Your sketch has life. Beautiful the way you captured her, relaxing with a cup of tea.
Very nice! A great sketch.
I wish I could draw people without making them look like gnomes!
I often look at people and see the animal spirits lurking just below the surface! :)
Lovely sketch!
Great Drawing!
I luv the pose!
Great sketch, Sheila!
My... Linda is limber! Great sketch of her Sheila!!
Hi Sheila - Lovely sketch. It has a very calming feeling to it.
This is very nice, Sheila — you really captured her air of calmness and ease. I love the squiggly lines that are more evident in the enlarged version.
Super nice sketch Sheila. You capture her mood and posture perfectly
Very nice sketch girl! She has that graceful, zen-like expression that contented cats have when they've found just the right spot. Hummmm...Think I'll go get some tea and see if I can feel the way she looks!
Lovely work, Sheila! Your sketches are darn good. (that's a technical term)
In Portuguese, "Linda" means "gorgeous", and you truly made her look like that!
Ooooo, nice life drawing, Sheila..... I suck at that.
Sheila, you need to post more of these sketches; this is beautiful!!!!
