Twins - A Commission




Sent out these pieces today. Four year old twins, the poses speak volumes about their different personalities. We looked at over 300 pictures to arrive at these poses, three visits with the girls. The third time was a charm, they were now comfortable with me and we were in their back yard where they played with me in their "magical woods" and played in the pool. Unfortunately, both of them had very wet hair with these shots. I did my best to pull dry hair from other photos. I think I did dozens of sketches and three drawings of each before I was happy with the end results. On to the next commission, a sixteen year old girl and her dog.
Thanks for looking
Patty

These are just beautiful! The line so sensitive and the tonal elements just right. I'm sure they're all thrilled and these will be family treasures.
