Above you see my reference photo. What fun to work with these two. They are such precious young people.
The graphite drawing above is from my sketchbook some years back. I was inspired by a postcard of a girl who's father was a photographer in the early 1900's. He took many pictures of his family, and put them onto postcards. My favorite photos are of his little girl. She had such an amazing camera presence. This is one of the rare pictures of her as a grown woman. Sadly, in WW2, all of the negatives and information about the photographer and who he might have been were destroyed. I just love this girl's face.
Have a lovely day and Happy Paint Party Friday!
