Born in 1990


This newborn baby girl is the daughter of someone who was a friend of mine a long time ago. I'm not naming any names as is my practice. Back in the 1980s and 1990s some of my friends had children and I helped raise them as a voluntary Artist Auntie. This one was born in January 1990 and I drew many pictures of her in my sketchbook. I am no longer in contact with her family due to political issues but she would be 29 now, well out of college and working somewhere. My drawings survive where the friendship did not.
