Working on a triple portrait!!!





These are my friends Walter and Christine, with their horse, Kyla. Klya passed away this year. Christine mentioned she never had a picture of the three of them together because one was always behind the camera, so I decided to make that happen for her by doing a special portrait. I am allowing her to see it in stages, but the top left hand corner I have a special surprise for her. It will bring the whole portrait all together. So far she loves it. I've mostly got Christine and Walter done, I'll need to "tweek" them, and Kyla is next. I saved Kyla for last because she is the most important portait of the three, also the fact that I'm right handed and I worked from left to right so my drawing hand had something to rest on! Still Kyla is the most important! This has been a challenge because I have not been well since I started this portrait, filled with back pain and more. But now I'm ready to hit the studio again and I have. It feels like I got my groove back!
