Description
This is another example of a portrait I did for a friend of mine. Most portraits are done as gifts for anniversaries or Christmas presents. The majority of the portraits are gifts for parents from their children. Usually a picture of the couple when they got married or when they were young and in their prime.
This drawing was done from a black and white photo that I created in color. I was lucky enough that it wasn't a surprise, so they were able to tell me the color of the suit and dress. I named it Shawn's Parents because that is the on other information I had. Even if I had know their names, I would always remember this as Shawn's mom and dad.
This was also a good example of being able to see the family resemblance from parent to child. My friend was the spitting image of his father. I have studied the features of faces for so long, It has become almost second nature when I look at someone. Thanks for looking at my art, contact me if you are interested in a portrait like this as a gift. When I see how emotional people become when receiving a gift of a portrait, there is no doubt how much people appreciate the thoughtful Idea.
