Day 9 1/2 of 21 - Father & Son

©Kathleen Rietz
More Daddy...
I drew again because I may have limited access to my computer for a few days. Plus....I just wanted to work on daddies.. : )

The focus in a lot of my work is diversity and creating positive role models.

    This is a wonderful piece, Kate. Go to color on this one please? I love the expressions and the lil' boy's pinky finger curling up. Nice job catching the razor in mid-air like the boy's interrupting the shaving, but the dad doesn't mind one bit. Very sweet.

    Fantastic! Great expressions! One of my favorite aspects of your art is the way you draw eyes.
