Paint Party Friday - Father and Daughter


For Paint Party Friday, I did this piece in my sketchbook (9" x 12") in watercolour pencil and crayon.  It was done using a wonderful photo of my brother taken some 12 years ago with his newly adopted daughter.  He and his wife have a biological son several years older.

It's awesome that he adopted a daughter. There are far too many children out there that need a home.
