Portrait of Noah
Portrait of Noah
This one is a commissioned portrait of Noah, one of my son Hugo’s preschool classmates. Kids' thumbprint portraits might just be my favorite - they are really fun to work on, and chock full of color.
Noah is a super sweet kid, as well as a rock star. It has been a treat to immerse myself in his kid library for a bit, as well as to get to know his family better.
Noah was born with a cleft palate, and his family has, as a result, become involved with Operation Smile, raising funds for kids less fortunate than himself, who need help affording the surgeries needed to correct theirs. A great cause - and you won’t be able to resist helping once you see his picture! (see below...)
Here is the link to his family’s page on the Operation Smile web site (click on the text below his pic):
