The amount of patience Kira exerted over this one astounded me.
This was the first drawing we did where I sat by her almost the entire time and
directed her. I did help her a tiny bit with the outline. Like most beginning artists,
and even seasoned ones, Kira has issues with facial proportions, and faces in
general. They’re tricky! Once we finished that, she took over completely while
I stood by and directed. About halfway through the drawing I was finding that
she needed me less and less. When I look at her I can’t help but think that she’s
got her whole life ahead of her and the possibilities are endless! I am so blessed to have such a talented little lady!
We made a speed drawing video. I wish I had gotten more
footage of her actually drawing, but, it gives you a really good idea of the
way we work together. Seeing her in action is pretty amazing! We will be doing limited edition prints of this soon, so contact me if you'd like one! She might be a famous artist someday so I'm hanging onto the original. Ha!
