Graphite Study Drawings of two lovely children. 13" x 9", Graphite/Oil base pencil on Watercolour paper, 2009

I recently posted sketches I did of these two lovely children and I have now completed the graphite study drawings in preparation for the painting and comments from their parents.




I have used graphite pencils and oil base pencils for this piece on a self sanded Cotman watercolour paper.




I tried to capture the boy in one of his funny moods and the girl with the spark of wonder, these are things I observed keenly in both of them, the day I went to sketch them from life.




Hope they like the studies so I can get down to business on the actual paintings.
