a memorial portrait

I finished this memorial portrait this week for a client who wanted something special to remember her sister by. Before I started drawing we talked about what her sister had been like. What she liked to do. What she was passionate about. The songs that she liked to sing and listen to (which turned into a playlist to listen to while I was drawing). It helped me connect and honour this beautiful woman as I drew. It turned out to be a pretty intense experience – concentrating on the tiny details and immersing myself. It took me out of my own world.

It has been a while since I did a full on portrait like this, and it has only reinforced my passion for drawing. It got me thinking. Why do I like drawing? What is it that compels me to create? Honestly? I’m not entirely sure at this point. I know that it feels like a kind of freedom that is foreign, so it may take me some time to understand and harness it. I know that I love burying myself in the beauty of a thousand tiny details. I know that it feels like I am in a whole new world .. like heading down Alice’s rabbit hole when I get lost in a drawing.

I’ll let you know when I figure it out…or perhaps it’s just one of life’s mysteries that will need to be embraced and enjoyed.

I finished this little realistic graphite piece last weekend. It felt good to be working with pencils again and taking time to do a  painstakingly detailed drawing. This one is on my favourite paper – Fabriano Artistico hot press….so smooth! It has just enough tooth to allow for some delicious dark tones.

This piece is now for sale in my Etsy store. Click the Picture to be taken there!

It’s been quite a while since I did a “proper” drawing. It was nice to slow down and work on this one over the last couple of months.

This portrait is coming along slowly…the small faces and poor reference photo are continuing to give me a bit of a headache, but it’s getting there!

I started working on my latest portrait commission this week. It’s a portrait of three crusty old outback station men who are brothers. Their family differentiated them by the shape of their hats. This one is going to be a bit of a challenge since this is the only photo available of these guys and it doesn’t have a whole lot of detail. Another challenge is that the faces are small in the drawing, which always makes it much more difficult to define their features.

Naomi Kate – Finished

The wonderful thing about school holidays is being able to finish off some projects! This one has been close for a couple of weeks now, but it’s finally finished. Here’s a low resolution shot of it.

Naomi Kate - Finished!

And here’s the portrait of Naomi Kate with the portrait I did of her big sister, Bethany Grace, a couple of years ago.
Naomi Kate framed and next to her sister!

I delivered the pics to the girls’ mum this afternoon, I LOVE that moment when they see the drawing (IRL) for the first time!

The thing I love about drawing siblings is seeing where the similarities l in their facial features. These two looked very similar when they were little babies, but at 8 months (as they both are in these pictures) you can see marked differences in their facial proportions and head shapes. They have the same nose though 🙂

My next challenge is at the opposite end of the spectrum of human life…three siblings who share a passion for different shaped hats to match their temperaments 🙂 Stay tuned!

Clothing done! Now onto the stuffed toy…the only problem is that it has been a good couple of years since I’ve drawn fluffy stuff, and I’m not sure I can remember how I did it last time.
