love the wonderful curly head and that he child is kneeling on one knee while in prayer. makes you wonder what the child was worrying over.your shading is very good and no smudging. the background is shaded just enough not to over power the child. i think you did a fantastic job!

An exceptional work! A moving and thoughtful piece, that transcends the public debate. Beautifully captured and executed through superior skill and process. A work that almost dares one to not feel moved. Beautiful, amazing work!!! Thanks

Ah, there you are! Been looking for a new piece from you. I have a photo of our two sons when they were about this age kneeling together by the bed praying. Your piece reminded me of those early years in family and ministry.
One of the things your work does is just that ... Puts the viewer on a memory trail. We can trace our own pilgrimage through your drawings. What a gift!,

Such innocence, yet so powerful to view. (I just adore his curls!) His pose is so child-like, with that little foot curved under his bottom. The lighting in this artwork is exquisite! It's like heaven is smiling on the little guy.

Comment from Life is but a dream.


Linda, it's a beautiful rendition. I found it on Pinterest and you did a great job using the reference.

Especially nice is the light falling on the child's head...almost a blessing from on high.

Today, on this side of the planet, children pray as it is the Lord Buddha's most holy day a big holiday of worship.
