Commissioned portrait from a
daughter to her father of his beloved
wife who he was married to for 45
years. She has moved on to her
heavenly father but has not left
"Willie's" heart.
Penny this is one of my favorit drawing of yours. Great job on her eyes and on her hair. Beautifuly done. My favorit is the one of Johnny, I love that one. Heck, I love them all!
Hey Penny!! How are ya? I absolutely love this portrait... and is just me? or do I see some features of the artist's self portrait and this portrait? I really think this woman and you share some profound facial features... and as I said, I love this portrait... because she has a gorgeous, classic beauty, inside and out. I hope you smiled today :) Miss seeing ya
Gorgeous Lady and Amazing pencil artistry,my Friend!!!David and I are Sorry for Their Great Loss!!!A Real Treasure you have created for the family!!!God Bless!!!
Artist Reply: You are one of the kindest people on this site. Your words are always so warming. Thank you very much Dee.
Like the demure soft facial features the lips came out very well and those little hair curls jutting out set off the style of the times.
Artist Reply: The photo I rendered from was a very old photograph. It was torn and faded. This was a real challenge for me. Thank you for your kind and encourgaing words.
Penny, this is beautiful, and awesome! It has such a presence to it that it seems it's not only an artwork, but it seems it is one that will soon be making eye contact, and conversing. Stellar artwork, Penny!
Artist Reply: Thank you Carliss. This one was a hit for me. I was suprised at how well this one went. I actually received two more commissions from this one.
