Head studies in pencil
4 Attachment(s)
I've taken a break from my oil painting to complete some drawings. Here are four of six head studies I've just finished.

Hi Christy,
These are lovely and very fresh! Are they studies for future paintings, or just for the sheer pleasure of drawing:) ? |

Thank you Chris!
They're not studies for paintings nor done for the sheer pleasure of drawing. They're commissioned works! I suppose I should be posting them under "Unveilings for Professionals"? Here are the last two. These are three sets of brothers and sisters. Two of the sets are cousins and are gifts to their grandparents for their 40th anniversary. |
I am so happy to hear that these portraits are commissions! The appeal of your work is an artist's dream. Finding clients who really appreciate the aesthetic process is a rare and precious thing.
Congratulations! |
Thank you very much Chris!
I know that I'm very fortunate to be able to get commissions. I think it has a lot to do with the local culture here. Child portraiture is big! I think the business is even bigger a little further south (I'm from Richmond, VA). I'm also very fortunate to get commissions in NC. |
These are great, Christy!

They are all sweet and delicate, a treat !

Thank you Alexandra. That is a really super nice thing to say! :)
I do enjoy the instant gratification and simplicity of doing these little pencil drawings. Thank you too Julie and IIaria! |
