The early years

Recently, when one of our coworkers' (that's you, Nicole V.) granddaughter was born, there was some pondering about what to do for a gift and it was then suggested that it would be really nice if I were to draw the baby's portrait. I did not fail to notice the motherload of the 'common' effort was resting on my shoulders, but what the heck. Results were satisfactory, although you won't really see it here, as due to lack of time, I had to make this scan on the work-scanner, which failed to pick up the shading of the clothes. The face and hand came out well though. On to the next!
