Hi, Virginia... and all.

The first question I'd ask, Virginia, is what attracted you to the 
scene? If we know that, then we can give a better critique.

I admire your gumption at tackling people as this is one area I 
generally have a lot of trouble. Strangely enough, I do well in my life 
drawing class, but when I attempt to insert people (with clothing) into 
a landscape, things get ugly. As I said, I admire your courage.

I would suggest you take another look at proportions. Children may be 
different, but in adults the legs are about the same length as the torso 
and head. With two of your figures, this holds; with the others, to my 
mid they are "leg-challenged."

I'll go back to my first point here: What attracts you to this scene? I 
think that's important to know.

cheers
pat
