Daughter Age 1 Mixed Media

young girl age one in graphite, watercolor and crayons
I did this almost 6 years ago, when my daughter was one. It’s a combination of graphite, watercolor and crayons on paper. As I haven’t had a chance to do art lately (work, work, work –> keep that web work coming!), I love the opportunity to share this portrait with you.

Was she really this curly?

I had to find a picture of her from age one. It was more messy than it was curly. It was all over the place.

I looked at another one. Yes, lots of curls behind her. I had very curly hair as a toddler, as did my mother.

Those curls remind me of my daughter until she got ahold of some scissors at age 3.....Beautiful portrait Leora...
