Pastel and Colored Pencil on paper

This image is a portrait of my friend Karen and her son Hunter.  I said "Hunter, show me your foot" and that made him laugh.  With the late afternoon sun streaming in on them from the window, this turned out to be a far better photograph than the ones that I got of Hunter holding up his foot for the camera.  The vibrant color of his shirt also compliments and brings together the warm reds and yellows of the brilliant natural lighting.
