Innocence

Drawing kids' close ups is a lot tougher than I had thought! They have smooth, flawless skin and every single mistake shows ...like smudging in some areas due to contact with my hand/palm in this drawing! It was on my board for many days, after all! Will have to be more careful in future.
I hope you enjoy this as much as I did....
