THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL DRAWING VIANA!

Portraiture is a tough business because there is a very fine line to cross in regards to people's vanity about themselves, in this case, their child. It's easy to see he is at the age when his face is changing, perhaps accentuating a feature or features that are not the parent's favorite. Much different than age 2.

Yes, I had a situation with a "chubby" lets say, child...long story...Anyway, have them sit with you with the drawing and point to what's wrong. Concrete, not esoteric feedback. It's the only thing that will help you make corrections they will be happy with. They owe you that.

Bravo for marking your boundaries. You have every reason to be proud of this.
