It's been interesting reading this thread about teeth. I always dread including them in a painting or drawing, but it usually turns out to not be so hard after all. There's not much room for error, though I suppose that's true for all aspects of portraiture. When I looked at your drawing I was captivated by the boys' impish smiles, natural expressions and how well you depicted them. I liked the way you placed them on the page as well. I didn't even notice the teeth until I read your accompanying post, but I think they look great. After reading Ron's last post I thought yes, it would be hard to do white teeth on a dark gray background. But you did a fine job.
