WDE Jan 19 -- The Drama Queen (WIP later)
Once I zoomed in to see what was on this little girl's t-shirt, I knew this was the one for me this weekend!  These children still need a background, thus the WIP - they look entirely lost on all this white. Will try to get to that later this weekend. I spent the greater part of today on this, as you might guess by all those locks. Had great fun (unlike last week)!! Wish I would have done it on good paper, tho - I thought all I would do is a sketch, but then I got into it! This is about 12x16 on 70 lb drawing paper.
Terrific selection of photos, Marita - thank you for hosting!!

You saw it!
I had forgotten what was on her dress!
What a lovely crop, focusing in on Jo. She has a beautiful face and her hair really shines.

Re: WDE Jan 19 -- The Drama Queen (WIP later)
Lovely drawing. I'd stop where you are and if you want color, start another all in color, maybe with paint. Great job.

Sketch paper or not, this will need a mat and frame when it's finished. Stunning!
