Even though I know thatprimarily focused on Judy, I would have liked seeing more of Nick's back story than just the fateful "Junior Ranger Scouts" incident.It's clear to me that Nick grew up in a loving home (where money was apparently tight), but nothing more is said or shown about his home life at his current age.I believe Nick's mother was present at the graduation ceremony where Nick became a cop, but I feel he deserves closure too.Thankfully, this picture (and others like it) fill in the gap.I love the way you've illustrated the expressions here. Nick is not one to wear his heart on his sleeves, but he can't stop the tears from falling down as he gazes upon the face of his mother for the first time in twenty years. The same paws who lovingly comforted the nine-year-old who ran home crying, are back again to comfort her prodigal son. Excellent work with color as well -- Mrs. Wilde has dressed the way I would expect a woman of her age to dress, and the colors are warm and muted. Compare this to the green and gray worn by Nick.
