Kid Series - Shading evolution

My typical drawings are of female portraits. I will share more of these of the next couple weeks. But I have been asked on occasion to draw children. These are from different times and my shading style has changed from using the pencil tip to using graphite with a different painters brushes. This dry brush technique is extrememly time consuming but in the last drawing you can see how realistic the shading can get. The years of the drawings are 05, 09 ,10.

My busy schedule only gives me a few time a year where I can focus on drawing. So my progress is consistent but slow.
