Young Girl with Hat

Actually, this is my grand-daughter, Maia. Capturing adult faces is hard enough, then to capture a child's face, all general rules change. Maia is terribly two and in this sketch she looks more like five or six.

  2. Jim--
    Very nice drawing. Children are difficult. Does her mother think it looks like her? That's the true test.

  4. Nicely done, tho. Yes, portraits are hard, especially children, but this is really nice. Practice, practice...
