Birthday Drawing


"Casey," 7 1/2" x 8 1/4" (small work) graphite drawing
(click the image to see it larger)

Belated Happy Birthday Casey (September 9)! My youngest nephew, Casey, is a few years more mature than this drawing reflects, but I drew my inspiration from one of my favorite pictures of him from 2007 because I feel it just captured him so well.

You've inspired me to get more drawing done Mona! This is awesome.

I love the image of you "ballet dancing" with your little partner too!

Thanks everyone. Sheila, it's so nice to know it also inspired you, thanks. My dancing partner, Madeline, told me she has never had lessons, she just learned from Angelina Ballerina, but she knows all the right moves!
