Lovely drawing, Marina! Sorry to be so late in coming to this one - I've been away from the forum for a while.

I'm glad this popped up again so that I can comment on this beautiful drawing, Marina - it is so sensitively rendered. I love that slight squash and shift on the lower face, a gesture and pose that reinforces a child's flexibility, vulnerability and charm.

Julie, Thomasin, and Linda : Thank you!
Linda: when I decided to draw her, she had the cheek more squashed, but I had to open a bit the curtain in order to see what I was drawing, and it made her move on the other side, then few minutes later , fortunately she came back in this position...
Yes I think it's about vulnerability. It's incredible to see how they trust their parents, and for few years we are their gods ( and slaves at the same time !)
