All made up and nowhere to go at age six. A lovely drawing of a young girl, wishing she were older and could go somewhere. She has a lovely face which I think shows a wonderful demeanor.

Wow Ray, this a totally different subject matter and style from your usual posts. I'm glad to see you stepping outside your comfort zone or maybe this predates your abstract period. Either way, it's nice to see. I love the eye shadow and different colored socks, your daughter obviously has a lot of personality. I like that you added that horizontal line, it definitely helps keep this image grounded. This has a nice softness, the colors and relaxed expression are all nicely conveyed.

    Lisa so nice to hear from you, I see you are enjoying your new camera. This is a re-sketch of My daughter when she was six and I added color. At the time I was taking a college figure drawing class. I am glad you enjoy it. Thank you for your wondreful review. Ray
Comment from Jewell McChesney


Wow Ray. I don't see the "Baby and child" reference but I guess this is an older child?
Anyway, I am coming to realize you have the ability to do many genres of art and find that intriguing.
Really good drawing. You have her physique down pat. The position of her on the chair, her expression and the simplicity yet complexity of this drawing is astounding. Awesome job.

    Jewell, Thank you so much for your wonderful review. While I was studying figure drawing in college, she was always a willing model. I am glad you like it. Ray

Love your versatility Ray! You constantly amaze me with the various forms of art you do. I remember the mite you did! You did an incredible job with that! This is a very sweet image of your daughter. At six I don't know how you got her to sit so long! I bet she cherishes this image. Sorry I don't have a six for you! Love the expression on your daughter's face! :o) Nancy

    Hi Nancy, thank you for compliments and the wonderful review. She loves the improved image and she will own it. She wasn't thrilled to sit but at the least I got 15 minutes and this is a recent resketch and in color. Your review is most important to me, we all don't have enough goodies to go round, I have the same problem. Thank you again. Ray

This is very interesting Bree. I'm not used to using this type of medium. I like how you pose the young girl sitting on the chair, pondering life and wondering what our next move is. Well done thank you for sharing. Good luck in the contest.
