Portrait Art

Portraits are scary - or is it just me?

I don’t consider myself an experienced portrait artist, but I get requested for them a lot so I’ve been practicing. Doing portraits makes me really nervous, but I was really happy with how this one turned out. My favorite part is the Granny squares because I also like to crochet. I really liked how the jean shorts turned out to with the frayed edges.

Portrait commissions are scary, because you really have to catch the likeness. And the tiniest bit of a millimeter sometimes makes it work or not 😅 But they are also an opportunity for growth 💪✨It is a beautiful painting and I am sure the customer was happy!

Yes, it’s those millimeters that get tricky. That’s usually when I start working upside down to charge up the perspective.
