Beautifully done Russell , and I think all the better without colour apart from the butterfly.

What an enchanting painting Russell. The strong sunlight and the adorable child, making a tentative step forward, contribute to a breathtaking work of art.

Thank you everyone

Really great composition and narrative. I would never think to something this detailed and illustrative in charcoal.

Strathmore grey toned paper, 40cm x 50cm, charcoal and white pastel. We were recently walking in Beddgelert Forest on a lovely summer's day, Olivia was desperate for a butterfly to land on the end of the stick she was carrying but sadly, no luck. So I thought I'd put one on it!
