Lon,
I'm a sucker for dad/kids representations -- I think that there have been millions more opportunities to capture them than actual captures, and I write from two decades' worth of personal experience -- and I'm also so impressed at your ability to produce your work in short order, without a lot of wretching over every excruiating detail -- even though that's the way I work!. I'm in Taiwan right now, and in every city to which I travel here -- and every train station in those cities -- there are street artists working in 10 to 15 minute portrait (pencil and charcoal) media, and doing amazing, sometimes heartbreaking work. The rest of my group is always off hearing lectures on the temples (of which I'm very interested), but when it's time to get on the bus, people know where to find me -- back at the sidewalk artist kiosks. As I'm not at all a pubic person, I'm amazed at anyone's willingness to work from the very first stroke under the gaze of crtiics. I wish you and I were in geographial proximity, so that we could more casually compare notes.
Cheers,
Steven
