Thank you Mike and Allan,
I appreciate your input. It is encouraging to read as I am still so inexperienced.
I will play with sketches. I already have done a few and instinctively put more space around them- it makes them actually look closer and more "chummy", which I think warms up the composition. But I was at a loss as to what to do with them, below the neck. I will try your suggestions Mike. I have been looking at masterworks of children till my eyes are blurry. I guess now it's time to play and see what happens.
Have a good weekend!
