Monkey See, Monkey Do

At this stage, Sandy can obviously draw better than Nickie. Sandy is using the full sheet of paper and filling every area with color. She shows improved control of the crayons, and you can see she has the patience to complete a piece like this.

Sandy: Portrait of a girl (herself?)

Nickie: Portrait of two girls (possibly Nickie and Lara? Although the smaller size of one of the figures indicates it might be Mom and Nickie, or Sandy and Nickie)

Here's Nickie copying her sister's format: large central figures facing forward, a border, the style of the ribbons and bowsand filling all the space with color. I wonder if the use of odd colors for outlines means the crayon I wanted was in use by Sandy...:)
