Drawing #82
A beautiful girl who came up to me while I was drawing at an art show and asked about portraits.
Drawing #81
A child at Jason's Straightedge barber shop. I'm assuming it's this little fella's first haircut. Don't know if he's happy with it or not.
Drawing #80
I've had a photo of my nephew Thomas and my sister for a couple of years now and I finally decided yesterday to get at it. So now that I'm finished it, I think its one of my personal favorites. I just love the mess and tangle of arms and legs when babies are being carried. And in this drawing, its so typical; you scoop up the half - dressed kid, grab your car keys, pop a plug in its mouth and away you go - time to go home!
I couldn't remember exactly what his onesie said - and I could have asked my niece, but when I got drawing him, I thought - I don't usually like "finishing" kids so I'm not going to make it say anything in particular. Kids aren't really a "finished project". Every day is different for them, and we put far too many labels on them. So if I took it as the writing to be on his behalf - well - he speaks baby talk and I don't, so I guess its none of my business. If its a label put on him by an adult - then I'm going to make it so the meaning changes every time you look at it.
