Me Time

This is a portrait of my niece that I recently drew with charcoal. I used to love drawing and I did it all the time but when my husband's hobbies (horses) took up all my spare time I never did it. After four years of playing with horses I'm finally back to doing things that I love, art. These days I have a husband at work all day, both my kids in school and no car to go anywhere with so I'm not lacking for spare time. I'm loving it for the six months I have left before the baby comes and my time vanishes again. Hooray for me time!
