Audrey Hepburn Speed Drawing

Yesterday I made this....

What do you think! It was very fun, I think I'll be making allot more. The only problem I have is finding faces to draw. It shouldn't be hard but it's got to be a big photo with good lighting, and something that inspires me, the eyes especially. I love drawing eyes, they bring life to a picture. Any suggerstions!! Do you have any good photos I can draw?? :)

I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud: William Wordsworth

I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stretched in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.

The waves beside them danced; but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
A poet could not but be gay,
In such a jocund company:
I gazed---and gazed---but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:

For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.
