Description This is me and my sponsored child, Malkis, from Colombia. She means a lot to me, and I don't write her as often as I should. I started sponsoring her when she was 10, and she's now 15... thanks to Compassion Canada.

I drew this on New Year's of 2009. It's been a long time before that since I had used markers and pencils, and it was fun to try again for her birthday gift.

There's something about the hair I just love. Okay, I just love how you shaded this period. It brings out a really cool effect and makes you two stand out!
That is so sweet! Too kind! I hope she's doing good! : D

aaww^_^ good to know you still keep in touch though. Nice job on the markers. I'm doing my own experimenting with media though.. i dont think mine went as well as yours did dunno.. youd have to critique copics on watercolour paper with ink is hard to do lol.. you did this really well though. Congrats and many more happy days to the both of yous. XD

Aaw, that's really sweet. Lovely art!

I know what you mean, we don't write our sponsored children half as often as we should.

Aaw, lol, don't worry about it. XD *Guiltily glances at messages on Coscom that I need to reply to* I'm probably more hooked on DA, too though. ;

My family sponsors two children, Claudelai in South America and Frolence in Zambia. They always send us these sweet letters, but it's so hard to reply. ;_; Makes me feel bad. T_T

I try to reply sometimes at work but I get peeved that there's no save draft option!!! :-[.

Aw that's so awesome ^^. how old are they now? I think I should switch to writing my child emails, because I'm so bad with letter-writing. I get all these good things to put in the letter (stickers and what not) then keep forgetting to write til it's months later ToT.

Uggh, I hate not being able to save drafts. >_<;;

Let's see... we've been sponsoring since I was a kid, so they're both nearing adulthood, now... They grow up so fast. ;_; I believe Frolence is 17 or so... and Claudelai may even be 19 (I think the sponsorship lasts until they're 21).
