Elle 8x10, Charcoal on Strathmore Bristol
I draw a great number of people when they are young, partially when their parents want a piece of art in their home with someone that has great meaning to them, and partially because people don't realize their own beauty when they are adults, and they think about old photos of themselves. I love drawing ALL people! All people are beautiful at any stage of life.

This is the brother of Elle, taken around the time he was her age in the portrait of her. Sorry the scanner I used was not cooperating, or maybe I took a picture with a faulty camera. That means, I didn't know how, exactly to use either one. Or perhaps I was really rushed. The portrait was gone before I could scan/photo it again. It still looks fine, but not a lot of those subtle medium or light tones and too dark the darks in her portrait. Oh well. C'est la vie!
