Interesting story. The little girl in this picture recognized me from drawing her this past summer - all the way In gulf shores, five hours away from this wedding! Evidently she had stayed with her grandparents for the summer and got drawn at the beach club where I was working. Small world!

This couple let me pick what I wanted. He gave me a "psychologist" vibe so that's what I did. Beware! If you let me pick whatever I want, your drawing may turn out FUNNY!

The little girl jumped up after everyone else was drawn. Thankfully I had room to the side! Typically I can draw about 6 people on my pages, but if you let me know ahead of time that you want a large group drawn, I can bring extra large paper or a board to draw on!

I do more first birthdays than any other age party!
