This is day 1 for one of my students on paper she stretched 20 years ago. Having packed away her art materials to return to work after children, it didn’t take long to revive her skills! What a fantastic result!
Just had a lovely message from Angela to say that Monty’s portrait was well received. That’s great news, I thought it was a great portrait to draw, what a lovely face! Portraits make great gifts, we luckily managed to keep this a secret even thought we had to kidnap the dog for a photo shoot. …
Happy birthday Ann, glad you liked your portrait. They make a great pair. Hope you have a brilliant rest of the day, Best wishes Nina photo
Horses suit pastels, it’s a great media to work texture in.
I’ve been working on this portrait for the last few weeks. Labradors make great subjects for pastel portraits. These two have lovely faces!
I received a commission to draw a portrait of these Japanese Akitas. I’m looking forward to drawing these two furry faces!
Lots of character in the this, but must be kept a secret for now!
Another surprise portrait so just a glimpse for now.
This is all so far, it’s a surprise so that’s all I can show! Still some work to do yet.
These two working springer spaniels needed a woodland scene to sit in. There owner requested something similar to my ‘waiting in the woods’ card. It was great fun putting the two elements together.Nina Squirewww.thepastelartist.co.uk07967 736762
