Nicky Sneak Peak

This is the line art for Nicky aged almost 3 and a ½. I really love the detail of his cute little milk teeth. Originally I was going to use a photo of Nicky with his tongue poking out, to capture his cheeky personality but this photo was too good to go past (it really captures his natural smile) so I’ll have to do a second portrait in the near future 🙂

I love the tongue poking out, a far less traditional portrait, and a little more punk. Maybe I’ll do a whole series … stay tuned!

Paint Detail of Sophia

I really wanted to show the detail of the paint. This portrait of Sophia is quite large so it’s hard to represent it on a small scale for web. Love her stunning green eyes.

Sophia Portrait Painted

The final step of adding in the paint is complete and it really feels like Sophia looking back out at me. Love the organic nature of watercolour paints. Looking forward to seeing this framed now.
