The morning after

A beautiful day in Edinburgh today, great for a family walk through the Botanics and Stockbridge. I’m glad I was disciplined last night and worked on a couple of commissions, so no more today. This is a close up of one I was working on, a mother and her son which is now finished and ready to send.

Mother Laura, made a successful bid for the portrait  in a recent online auction for the Countthekicks campaign, making £70 for the charity. I hope she likes it 🙂

Here is the full image of Mother and son:

Sick day

No sketching today as I was consigned to my bed with a killer migraine. So instead a look at Rubie, a horse portrait I have recently finished. I posted the pencil sketch a few days ago, but here is the final ink version plus one where I have added a contrasting coloured background.

I like both versions but what do you think? All comments welcome, really 😉
