Four dog portraits have been immortalized on silver christmas balls

I am very grateful and I find it very special to be able to make people happy with my portraiture in these difficult times.

The client wanted to surprise her husband with hand-painted Christmas balls with the portrait of their 4 dogs. And it was certainly a big surprise, her husband loved the balls!
These will also get a nice prominent place in the living room.

Recently commissioned children's portrait

Pastelportret_15x21cm.jpgRecently I drew a number of nice baby and child portraits on commission. For this portrait on size 15x21cm we chose an anthracite-coloured background. The portrait itself is drawn in shades of grey. Then I applied some soft colour accents.
