The Little Birthday Girl

This is a cute little girl who is turning one in a few days. She's the god-daughter of my client. I drew her using graphite on white Stonehenge paper. I also used a little pink color on her ribbons, her shirt and her lips. The portrait is a 9x12.

I enjoyed drawing this cutie and hope I get to do this more often!!! Again, the portrait looks a lot better than the photo of it. I will be investing in a good camera soon! The background should be white...not gray!
